Caine: 'Ledger will land an Oscar nomination'

Heath Ledger will be honoured with a posthumous Oscar nomination for his role as the Joker in the movie 'The Dark Knight', his co-star Michael Caine insists.

Ledger's performance has been lauded by castmates and preview audiences, and his name is already being mentioned as a contender for next year's Academy Awards - which will take place shortly after the first anniversary of his death.
