Leahy Gets Knifed By Deceased Heath Ledger

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) has a knife held to his throat by deceased actor Heath Ledger during the upcoming Batman movie.

In the scene, Ledger, who plays the Joker, is terrorizing a ballroom filled with people. Leahy, a longtime batman fan, steps up to confront Ledger.

“We’re not intimidated by you thugs,” Leahy says.

“You know you remind me of my father. I hate my father,” Ledger replies putting a knife to Leahy.

Leahy also had a part in an earlier Batman movie and was the voice of a governor in the episode of “Batman: The Animated Series.”
