Cineplex has extended the release of Thunderbird Entertainment’s I Am Heath Ledger from a one night special event to a week long special event.

The film will now screen on select dates from May 4th – May 11th in theatres across Canada.
Rolling Stone listed I Am Heath Ledger as one of the top movies to see at Tribeca, and The Playlist says the film’s “viewpoint feels like a genuine portrait of who Heath Ledger truly was.” It will have its broadcast premiere on The Movie Network (TMN) on May 22nd.
