Philip Seymour Hoffman’s grieving longtime girlfriend got a condolence call Wednesday from actress Michelle Williams — whose own celebrity partner, Heath Ledger, died of a drug overdose in 2008.
Williams, wearing sunglasses, arrived at Mimi O’Donnell’s Greenwich Village apartment at around 4:45 p.m. in a black livery car, wearing dark sunglasses, a black knit cap, olive field jacket, black leggings and fleece-lined duck hunting boots.
She was escorted to the door by O’Donnell’s driver and bodyguard, who performed the same duties for Williams after Ledger’s stunning death in his SoHo apartment in 2008.
Both women have children who were left fatherless by the deaths of their Oscar-winning dads. And just like O’Donnell — who sources have said kicked Hoffman out of their apartment last year over his drug use — Williams reportedly gave Ledger the boot from their home in Brooklyn’s Boerum Hill for the same reason.
Williams, 33, co-starred with Hoffman, 46, in “Synecdoche, New York.”
Others who showed up to support O’Donnell included Beth O’Neil, a producer the 2010 movie “Jack Goes Boating,” which Hoffman directed and starred in.
“Sopranos” actress Lola Glaudini — who had a small role in the movie, which her dad, Bob Glaudini, scripted — made a return visit, carrying a plastic bag full of clothes.
O’Donnell spent about 90 minutes making arrangements for Hoffman’s private Friday funeral at the St. Ignatius Loyola Roman Catholic Church on the Upper East Side. A private wake is scheduled for Thursday.
A church official said the Friday noon Mass would be private.
Later in the day, hundreds of mourners gathered for a candlelight vigil outside the Bank Street Theater in the West Village.
Hoffman “was a true master,” said David Eston, 23. “Sure, he had his problems, but we’re all human and make mistakes.”
Also marking multiple visits yesterday were director Paul Thomas Anderson and actors Justin Theroux and Joaquin Phoenix, who was accompanied by his much-younger girlfriend, Allie Teilz, who saw his brother, River, die of an OD in 1993.
