Dark Knight Rises Characters Announced: Catwoman and Bane [6 comments]

Tara

The new characters for The Dark Knight Rises were announced today:

Anne Hathaway as Catwoman (Or specifically, Selina Kyle. Catwoman’s alter ego.)

and Tom Hardy as Bane.

I’m a huge fan of Christopher Nolan, and have faith that he is going to make a fantastic film. And this cast? Just confirms it. These characters and actors are going to bring a lot of passion and intensity to the film, and I’m interested in seeing how they’ll be portrayed. Plus, Hathaway, Hardy, and Bale in the same movie? That is going to be one good looking cast.

What are your thoughts on these characters/actors?

College Humor is at it again with this great commentary on Superhero films:

What do you think of “gritty reboots” of films? I for one love the dark, more realistic tone it sets. And I’m always in for 10 ccs of Daddy Issues.

The third Batman movie in Christopher Nolan’s trilogy finally has a release date: July 20, 2012

So you have some time to catch up on Batman Begins and The Dark Knight if for some reason you haven’t seen them yet.

The film is currently in pre-production and doesn’t have a villain listed yet. Who would you like to see as the villain?

(Christopher Nolan has already claimed it will not be Mr. Freeze. Sorry, Arnold. No puns from you this time.)
