Christopher Nolan names sequel and reveals which villain won't be appearing this time.
Christopher Nolan has finally broken his silence about the forthcoming Dark Knight sequel, announcing the film's title and ruling out a character who, up until this point, was thought to be a frontrunner for the villain of the piece.
Speaking to Hero Complex, Nolan revealed that the Batman 3 title will be The Dark Knight Rises, and in a move that may surprise some fans, he said that the film's villain won't be The Riddler.
That should come as a disappointment to Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy -- thought to be favourites to win that particular part -- although the latter will still apparently appear in an unspecified role.
Nolan also announced that the sequel would be shot in 2D rather than 3D, thereby retaining the high-definition IMAX approach that served him so well on the first two films.
The Dark Knight Rises will again be scripted by Christopher and Jonah Nolan, based on a story by David Goyer.
So which villain would you like to see terrorise Gotham City in part three? Could it be a female character, as rumoured yesterday?
Emily Blunt, Meagan Fox, Angelina Jolie, and Marion Cotillard are just some of the names that have been rumored for Catwoman.
