Batman fans have been given an early Christmas present this year, as Apple have just released the latest trailer to Christopher Nolan’s upcoming third, and final, Batman movie; The Dark Knight Rises (now available to view below); which is notable for not only providing a fresh look at some of the latest stars to join the franchise, but bringing the Bat out into the daylight for the first time, and introducing a whole new Bat-vehicle.
Christian Bale reprising his role as the titular hero Bruce Wayne/Batman (aka The Dark Knight), and is once again joined by franchise regulars Michael Caine (Alfred), Morgan Freeman (Lucius Fox), Gary Oldman (Commissioner Gordon), and Nestor Carbonell (the Mayor), in the film which is set a full eight years after the events of The Dark Knight, and looks to give Batman his toughest challenge by far.
Anne Hathaway (Love and Other Drugs) and Tom Hardy (Bronson) will also appear as The Dark Knight Rises’ villains; Selina Kyle/Catwoman and Bane respectively; alongside other series newcomers Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception) and Marion Cotillard (Inception), in the film which is due to be released on July 20th next year.
