While talking to
Coming Soon about narrating a new film called
Born to be Wild, Morgan Freeman was asked about his return as Lucius Fox in
The Dark Knight Rises. You will notice that he also addresses the opening scene in the film, just like cinematographer Wally Pfister said back in February that
"The opening scene of the movie will blow your mind"
CS: What are you most excited about for "The Dark Knight Rises," for you and the film?
Freeman: The most exciting thing about it is watching the openings, I'm telling you. Doing it, it's fun to work with Chris Nolan. He's really a terrific writer, a terrific director. One of those highlights of your career.
CS: Is there interesting stuff planned for you as Lucius Fox in the film?
Freeman: Oh, yeah – really good stuff!
We all remember that awesome opening scene in
The Dark Knight, and knowing that Nolan topped that is truly great.
Starring Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman, Anne Hathaway, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Juno Temple, Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine
The Dark Knight Rises is set to hit theatres on July 20, 2012!
