In an interview conducted this week with various news organisations during promotion for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, the actor also commented on the secrecy surrounding the script...while we've already heard just how careful Christopher Nolan is being with The Dark Knight Rises story details, it sounds like something pretty major happens in the last three pages! Here is an excerpt courtesy of Winnipeg Free Press.

"Christopher doesn't want anyone to ruin it and I completely understand that. The newer people on the film go to his office to read the script. They sent mine out, but it had to be hand delivered directly to me and nobody else. And the final few pages were missing. I went along and talked to Christopher and in person about the ending. Then I locked it away in my head."


We've seen a partial transcript of the following video, but here are his thoughts on Christopher Nolan's decision to direct a third (and possibly final) Batman movie courtesy of the guys over at Love Film.

Head to the 2:35 mark for talk of The Dark Knight Rises.
