Jake Gyllenhaal has remembered his friend Heath Ledger.

Speaking to Fresh Air, he opened up about his friend and Brokeback Mountain co-star, who died in 2008 from an accidental drug overdose:

"I miss him as a human being and I miss working with him and what an unfortunate thing it is that we won't be able to see the beauty of his expression."

Losing Heath has motivated Gyllenhaal to focus on the important things in life:

"I think losing Heath and being a part of a family that was something like the movie ... makes you appreciate that and hopefully moves you away from the things that really don't matter to the things that do."

Gyllenhaal's latest film Southpaw is in cinemas now.
