Batman 3 Coming in 2011, says Gary Oldman – UPDATED

Posted on Friday, July 24, 2009 at 8:02 pm by AlexHaas

At the San Diego Comic-Con 2009, Gary Oldman was starring on a panel for one of his upcoming movies when he was asked about Batman 3. He replied saying,

I think the next Batman is next year. We start shooting next year for a release in two years. You didn’t hear that from me.

This is sure a strange way to hear of any semi-official news regarding a third Batman film.UPDATE: (video) Gary Oldman interview that took place outside of The Book of Eli panel room.

If it's next year that they start shooting then it won't be directed by Nolan

Oh my God! It must be Nolan!!!

@dagn96 nah, they could start shooting in August and still be Nolan. We have to see how it plays out…

Awesome. Maybe this will stop all those rumors about Nolan not coming back,

After his 3atman comment, he said "I've been a rather naughty boy today." lol

What was that "naughty boy" thing; who said that and why?:-D

Oh, never mind, I understand it.

Think about it. Nolan could have the script finished but what about the time of pre-production? It's hard to have a short time in pre-production and film a month later. But still it could be Nolan cause he has that kind of potential.

Ya I don't think it's going to be Nolan Factoring in finishing up the script, casting, principal photography and post-production work, I don't see how I could be Nolan

2011 is wishful thinking, and later Oldman backtracked to include the much more plausible 2012 as the release year.

I think that if a script is completed and filming begins no later than August 2010, they'll have enough time for a late 2011 release. Also, I'm not even questioning whether or not Chris Nolan is directing this film. If it's a 2011 release, he's doing it.
