Mr. Wayne, if this information is correct, it looks like you’ll come out of hiding in July 2012.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. has set July 20, 2012, as the release date for the third Batman film in director Christopher Nolan’s wildly successful run on the franchise.
Currently Nolan is in post-production on his latest non-Batman film Inception, but is also flushing out the newest Batman story with co-writer, David Goyer.
At this point there is no official title for the film nor a start date for production.
With Batman 3 now announced, 2012’s summer is looking to be every comic movie fans dream. The Avengers is set for May 4 and the Spider-Man relauch is set for July 3. Also, the Star Trek sequel will be beaming down to theaters on June 29.
The Pulse: Sure it’s still two years off, but ever since people first walked out of their first viewing of The Dark Knight there have been a cornucopia of conjectures as to which of the Caped Crusaders grand gallery of psychotic super-villains will be appearing in the third thrilling film and which amazing actors will play them. So far, I think my most revered rumor is Johnny Depp as that rambunctious rapscallion, The Riddler.
Which Batman villain would you love to see on the big screen and who would you want to play them?
