On July 14th 2008 The Dark Knight starring Heath Ledger as the Joker opened in New York City, followed by a general release on July 18, 2008. Mr. Ledger so immersed himself in this role that many of his associates became concerned about his mental well being during the filming. Aside from the passion and talent that the cast of The Dark Knight put into their roles, the Makeup Department that consisted of over twenty Makeup Artists and Hairstylists created believable characters for this unusual portrayal of Batman. Led by Key Makrup Artist Sue Robb-King, the Makeup Crew for The Dark Knight included John Caglione, Jr as the personal makeup Artist for Heath Ledger who spent hours each day in the Makeup Chair in preparation for his role as the sinisterly evil joker.
Almost immediately after the July 2008 release of The Dark Knight, there was a public clamoring for the Joker Makeup for the upcoming Halloween. Heeding the request from Mehron Authorized Retailers around the world, Mehron contacted Special Effects Makeup Artist Anthony Giordano to put together the Mehron Theatrical Makeup that would be needed to approximate the look of the Joker as portrayed by Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight. Within a few weeks, Mr. Giordano came up with a collection of Mehron Theatrical Makeup Products that could be packaged together for the introduction of the Evil J. Villain Halloween Makeup Kit by Mehron. The complete Halloween Evil J. Villain Makeup Kit by Mehron, which includes step by step illustrated instructions that guide you through the application of the Professional Mehron Makeup chosen by Anthony Giordano to replicate the look of an Evil Villain in the same vain as The Joker, was put on the Mehron production priority list and was introduced in early September 2008.
