Mini-Me actor Verne Troyer has paid tribute to his Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus co-star Heath Ledger, who tragically died earlier this year, saying he "meant a lot to a lot of people."
The diminutive Austin Powers star also revealed that he and co-star Lily Cole even got tattoos in the shape of a heart scribbled by the late Australian actor before his death, in honour of their lost friend. "A lot of us went and copied that heart and had it tattooed, in remembrance of Heath," he explained.
And Troyer treasures the time he spent working with the Brokeback Mountain star. "I've just got to say thank you to Heath for letting me be a part of his life for that short period of time," he said.
"He was such a talented actor and just a good person all around," added the star who will team up once again with his Austin Powers co-star Mike Myers in June for comedy The Love Guru.
