THE DARK KNIGHT RISES - Catwoman Costume Revealed


Because "The Dark Knight Rises" is still filming in Pittsburgh, outdoors and in broad daylight, on-set photos and videos have become something of a habit these days. That's how we first found out what Bane (Tom Hardy) looks like and caught a glimpse of a fight between the villain and Batman (Christian Bale), a video which I decided not to post here on account of it being rather spoilerish. What I don't consider to be a spoiler, however, is the fact that through these amateur photos, the world has caught its first glimpse of Anne Hathaway as Catwoman. Or, at least, her stunt double, wearing the Catwoman suit. Well, let's just say it's not what I expected, but I suppose cat ears would have been too much for Christopher Nolan's realistic vision of the Batman universe. The above image is an official photo released by Warner Bros., which definitely features Anne Hathaway, and the pictures below are the on-set stunt double photos.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES - Bane Costume Revealed

Click the images to see them enlarged

"The Dark Knight Rises" has moved back to Pittsburgh and resumed filming, and that's where JustJared.com managed to take some pictures of Tom Hardy in full-gear as Bane, one of Batman's most dreaded villains, as well as Batman's new Tumbler, which is basically the old one with military camouflage. In the pictures, Bane is standing on top of the Tumbler, which has sparked a great deal of speculation on the Internet about what this means in terms of plot. As usual, I will refrain from any such speculations, but I will say that Bane looks like a cyborg from some kind of post-apocalyptic scenario.

It's really too soon to say if he looks ridiculous, or not, because we'll have to see him in action before passing judgement, but I'm sure Hardy is capable of crafting a menacing character, so the costume really is a secondary thing here. There's also a video of the crew allowing a bride and groom to take a closer look at the Tumbler, which is pretty cool.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES (2012) - Set Video, Christian Bale and Anne Hathaway



The on-set video features Anne Hathaway (Selina Kyle/Catwoman) and Christian Bale (Bruce Wayne/Batman) in a scene together at Wollaton Hall, in England, which serves as the new Wayne manor. At the end you can even spot director Christopher Nolan approaching to discuss something with the actors. The movie comes out July 20, 2012. I think I'll leave the storyline speculations to the specialists out there. Instead, here are three more videos, one which shows off the splendid Wollaton Hall, and the other serving as reminder that they need a bigger gate. To Watch them read the full article.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES - New Viral Videos, Fan-Made or Not ?

"The Dark Knight Rises" is quickly amping up its publicity campaign, even before the completion of the actual production. A handful of viral videos, supposedly posted by The Fire Rises, the same username that was used in the Twitter viral game that resulted in a picture of Tom Hardy as Bane, have surfaced on YouTube.

The videos (click to read the full article) contain garbled footage and seem to hint at some crazy events occuring in Gotham City. One of them shows a TV broadcast talking about a breakout at Arkham. All videos contain the weird chant that was found on the movie's official site. Word on the street...er, the web, is that these clips are fan-made. There's also a facebook account for The Fire Rises, that sort of looks fake. Initially the name on the user info page was Warner Bros Entertainment, but now it just contains the release date of the movie. You can check out the facebook account for yourself by clicking here. The like count keeps on rising every minute. Whether it's all fake or not, I guess it doesn't even matter. Everybody's interest is piqued, and the buzz is buzzing, so it's win-win for Christopher Nolan. His movie gets more news coverage and that's all that really matters. If you're thinking of checking out the real official websites, here they are :
