Will Heath Ledger be nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of the Joker in The Dark Knight?

Even before audiences had a chance to watch The Dark Knight, there was buzz that Heath Ledger's frightening and ominous performance as the Joker could earn him an Oscar. Ledger, who died in January after a fatal prescription drug overdose, was unrecognizable in smeared facepaint, and is being counted as one of the greatest cinematic villains of all time. He's been nominated for an Oscar once before, for Brokeback Mountain, will he get one more nomination to top off his career?

Yes, Heath Ledger will be nominated for another Oscar for The Dark Knight.
No, Ledger's only nomination is for Brokeback Mountain.

I bet it so many months ago, but now I want to add a comment. First, thanks Cindy for her creation. This bet is simple but classic and I hope Heath will appreciate for this question because there are so many players. And I agree with sophie_robinson91 and it's so sad he wont be on 81st Annual Academy Awards. But, we'll remember you Heath for ever and for always. And I'm so glad you came to the world. You are a legend!!!!!!
