empire banner 2 New Details About The Dark Knight Rises Revealed

Empire Magazine just released their latest issue, which (as we showed you this past weekend) features Bane and Batman on the front covers. Inside the issue are new exclusive photos, as well as a wealth of new information about The Dark Knight Rises gleaned from interviews with Christopher Nolan, Christian Bale, and Tom Hardy. Points of discussion include where, or rather, when the story picks up, Bane and his mask, and the details surrounding the 6-minute prologue that is coming December 16th in front of select IMAX showings of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol. Considering these details are being discussed by and with the approval of Christopher Nolan, I’d say their spoiler level is fairly light. But if you happen to be a person who wants to go in as fresh as possible, or you’re someone who wants to avoid set pictures of any kind, perhaps the rest of this article isn’t for you. For the everyone else, welcome. Read the rest of this entry »

bane unleashed Production Update #7: Bane & The Tumbler Unleashed

The Dark Knight Rises celebrated its arrival in Pittsburgh by filming a major scene on only their second day in town. In action on set earlier today was Tom Hardy, in his full Bane costume, and a couple Tumblers too! That’s right! We thought maybe it would stay secret for a little while longer, but now the cat is out of that bag; a number of Tumblers were spotted on set. A handful of photos and some really dope YouTube videos have surfaced from today, but the contents of said media are kinda spoilery. If you wish to stay squeaky clean, read no more.

This morning the first official image from The Dark Knight Rises was revealed — an image of Tom Hardy as Bane! Yesterday Warner Bros. announced the beginning of production on the film via press release, and many fans on the forums speculated that the launch of the film’s official website www.thedarkknightrises.com was bound to be next — and so they were right. The site is seemingly just a black image with an embedded audio file playing odd chanting. It seems that a fan over at SuperHeroHype took a look at the visual spectrum of that audio file and embedded in it was the Twitter hashtag #thefirerises. Upon tweeting the hashtag, each person’s twitter icon was assembled to reveal the image of Bane on the site. Click on the image below to check out the hi-res image of Bane below:

aboutboul tdkr Alon Aboutboul Cast in The Dark Knight Rises

Alon Aboutboul has been cast in the role of a mad scientist for The Dark Knight Rises, according to an Israeli website. Aboutboul is most known for his role as Al-Saleem, one of the main antagonists in Ridley Scott’s 2008 film Body of Lies, but he has been also appearing in small roles in a lot of top level American tv shows the past 2 years. The news of his casting was seemingly confirmed by his wife via Twitter. Some folks on the internet have already leaped to the conclusion that this mad scientist role is that of Hugo Strange, who has been rumored to appear in the movie for many months now. A more likely scenario could be that Aboutboul is playing a scientist who does human scientific experiments on the character Bane, who will be portrayed by Tom Hardy in the film, or possibly the old Batman villain from way back, Doctor Death.
