Nolan – Hardy talk about the next Batman installment – The Dark Knight Rises

Batman: “The Dark Knight rises” hits the cinemas next year, but the two main stays of the franchise, director Christopher Nolan and actor, Christian Bale recently gave an insight to what actually one is expecting out of the latest installment.

While to say a little, Nolan told that the movie picks eight years after the previous movie ( The Dark Knight), therefore the character of Batman by now have become a little older and different, claiming that its “ really all about finishing Batman and Bruce
Wayne’s story”.

"We left him in a very precarious place," Nolan said of the Gotham hero. "Perhaps surprisingly for some people, our story picks up quite a bit later, eight years after The Dark Knight. So he’s an older Bruce Wayne; he’s not in a great state."

While the Joker has affirmed his significance to the Batman franchise, the new villain Tom Hardy (Inception) has rather difficult boots to fill in, however Nolan expects him to emerge as vicious as the Joker, which was played by Heath Leger.

With Bane, we’re looking to give Batman a challenge he hasn’t had before. With our choice of villain and with our choice of story we’re testing Batman both physically as well as mentally."

Hardy also commented on his role, "He’s a big dude who’s incredibly clinical, in the fact that he has a result-based and oriented fighting style. It’s not about fighting. It’s about carnage. The style is heavy-handed, heavy-footed, it’s nasty.

“Anything from small-joint manipulation to crushing skulls, crushing rib cages, stamping on shins and knees and necks and collarbones and snapping heads off and tearing his fists through chests, ripping out spinal columns. He is a terrorist in mentality
as well as brutal action."

An eagerly awaited movie which wil hit the floors on July 20, 2012.
