We've already seen three Spider-Man movies with Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, and the hunky James Franco...we've already seen three X-Men movies with Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, and Halle Berry...we even have SOOOOO many Batman movies made since the first one came out with Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson! So what else could there possibly be?
Well for all of you who do not know, I LOVE BATMAN. I've never seen the television series from the '60s and I've never read any of the comics. However, I have played the videogame Batman: Arkham Asylum (Loved it!) and I have seen all of the older-pre-Christopher Nolan movies at one point. I also have seen the Christopher Nolan movies as well...and guess what...THERE IS ONE MORE COMING OUT!!!
This final movie is titled The Dark Knight Rises. So far, Google, AOL, Yahoo and so many different websites all confirm that Anne Hathaway will be playing Catwoman, Tom Hardy from Inception will be playing Bane, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt apparently has a role, but we do not know what it is yet. Also, there have been rumors that either a) Robin Williams will be playing Hugo Strange or b) that Robin, Batman's sidekick, will be a character in the film. Th film is set to premiere on July 20th 2012 (according to IMDB).
Other than Batman, another X-Men film will be released called X-Men: First Class. It is the prequel to all the other films. Actors such as James McAvoy, January Jones, Michael Fassbender, and others will star in the movie. This film will be coming out sooner: June 3rd 2011!!! Lucky X-Men fans!!!
Speaking of The Avengers...There will also be The Avengers premiering on May 4th 2012 starring Robert Downey Jr. reprising the role of Iron Man, Scarlett Johanseen reprising her role as Black Widow and Chris Evans reprising his role as Captain America and Chris Hemsworth as Thor!
So for all of you comic book geeks...BE EXCITED :D

It is crazy how many remakes Hollywood produces! You didn't mention anything about Superman, what do you think about that series? and the fact that they are already producing a new 'version' with another hunky actor?
ReplyDeleteI can tell you with certainty Robin is NOT going to be in Nolan's movies. His movies are about the early Batman years--so, as Nolan has said before, Robin is a baby in a crib somewhere. Besides, Nolan does not like the charecter.--nor do I. Yes, July 20, 2012 is the release--filming begins this May.
ReplyDeleteNolan's Batman series is not a re-make and neither is the Superman movie he is producing--Snyder, the guy who directed 300, is directing the Superman movie, Nolan's choice.
IMDB is okay, but Batman on Film is the place to go for Bat-movie news. IMDB has had false information before. They had someone listed as playing the Riddler months ago, and Nolan never intended to use that charecter.
You're right! I didn't mention Superman. I did that on purpose because I do not care for Superman XD BUT the actor who is playing him, Henry Cavill, is a beautiful human being :D
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for the new Batman movie! I was wondering when the next one would come out. The Thor movie looked interesting from commercials. I despise Scarlett Johanseen. They should have killed her off just like they killed Maggie Gyllenhaal in Batman. She was a better actress than Katie Holmes, but who isn't!
