Gabrielle Union Shares Fond Memory Of Working With Heath Ledger: 'He Was Such A Gentleman'

Gabrielle Union is all smiles while attending the premiere of her latest film Almost Christmas held at Regency Village Theatre on Thursday (November 3) in Westwood, Calif.

The 43-year-old actress was joined by her co-stars Omar Epps, Mo’Nique, Keri Hilson, Danny Glover, Romany Malco, John Michael Higgins, Kimberly Elise and Nadej Bailey, as well as Trevor Jackson and Tara Reid, who both came out to show their support.

While promoting the film on Bravo’s Watch What Happens L!ve, Gabrielle shared her fondest memory of working with the late and great Heath Ledger in 10 Things I Hate About You.

“God, the first time I met him, he had done a movie in Australia and nobody had really heard of him – he was just this mysterious 19-year-old,” Gabrielle expressed. “He told me and everyone else who was over 21 to meet him at the top of the hotel at this bar, and we walk in, and he’s just got this wild hair. Again, he’s 19, but he’s got a dad drink. He was such a man, such a gentleman, and his girlfriend at the time was like 38. He was great, warm, funny. We had a lot of fun. I thought all movies were like that.”
