The next subject of Spike’s I Am documentary series will be Heath Ledger.

The episode will explore the life of the late Australian actor through a series of interviews with members of his inner circle. No word yet if this includes family members. Ledger is well known for his roles in Brokeback MountainThe Patriot10 Things I Hate About You, and The Dark Knight for which he won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor posthumously. At the age of 28, Ledger died from a mixture of prescription drugs in 2008 and is survived by his daughter, Matilda, and ex-partner, actress Michelle Williams.

I Am will air in May.
