Heath Ledger's Oscar legacy, his best supporting actor trophy for the madly villainous Joker in "The Dark Knight," is destined to pass into the hands of his daughter, Matilda.
His Academy Award will be held in trust by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and given to Matilda Ledger, now 3, when she turns 18.
The Oscar ceremony turned solemn as Ledger received a standing ovation from his Hollywood colleagues for his role in the latest Batman saga.
Ledger died in January 2008 of an accidental overdose of prescription drugs at age 28. His parents and sister spoke on his behalf Sunday.
