The Dark Knight Rises Script Expected Monday

The Dark Knight Rises Script Expected Monday

Thats right, Christopher Nolan is expected to send his script for "The Dark Knight Rises" to Warner Bros. TOMOMORROW.

This is pretty big news, David S. Cohen of Variety is reporting. During a recent sit down with Christopher Nolan, the director revealed that his script for "The Dark Knight Rises", his third and final Batman film, would be due Monday, December 6th (TOMORROW).



Since the script is being handed in very soon, should we expect a press release soon confirming the villains/story? Obviously things will take time to finalize, but don't be surprised if we started hearing some official news on Nolan's final Batman movie by early January.

oh yeh I can see it now "hey nolan you gave us a franchise worth billions of dollars and the world is dying to see you give them another batman film. But a day late with that script and we will fire you and replace you with micheal bay" haha

I doubt Nolans gonna be in any "Big Trouble"...
At the end of the day, Nolan is the one who determines whether the movie is good or bad...

Nolan is one of the best directors out there, James Cameron has nothing on him (besides the Avatar technology which I thought was average)

EDIT :P

"In big trouble" probably means trouble for his tight production schedule, and not trouble from WB. WB firing Nolan for submitting a script a little bit later than expected? Not gonna happen.

@Superkalkixass - Ignorant trolling is so 2006. You need a major upgrade, sister.

It's an actual source not anyone claiming some trusted source told them something I have a feeling some people are off in their reports of the movie if it is being handed in on Monday.

@Superkalkixass

Yeah sure WB will fire the guy who made money with Dark Knight and Inception.

@Superkalkixass wtf?

@Everybody I thought CBM was mostly Nolan-friendly. Wtf is everybody's problem?

I swear i'm gonna make a definition on urbandictionary.com called:

Smallville-Hating: a form of hating, originated from the consistent hating on the tv show, 'Smallville', used to describe senseless and noobish hating on anything prosperous and/or considered good.

@superkalkixass maybe they can get Singer to direct and we can get a sequel to Batman returns and Batman can have a kid too.
Nolan has done a phenomenal job making these movies and I'm pretty sure he'd be completely fine if he didn't turn the script in on time but hopefully he does and we get some real news on the movie and no more rumors or speculation.
And I'm with you @deadpool Hugo Strange doesn't interest me either and hopefully that is one of those fake rumors.

Superkalkixass & other haters its time U all wake up WB/DC is smart they will work with each other to make a great film stop hatin all the time I'm sick of it, Nolan had the guts to respect Bob Kane's creation & U should 2! Many of U want to see sum of the disrepectful interpretations done of Batman b4 but U must rememeber sum things things that R done in cartoons and comics does not always fit well in live action, Nolan has the best live action Batman series ever & Bale is the best Batman ever bcuz altho many of U complain about hsi voice it was the creative team that want the voice that way Bale had a job to do & he did I have no problem with the voice bcuz Batman is suppose to be terrifying to criminals and wen I look at it I want to be able to say "I did not know that was Bruce Wayne under the cape and cowl" Bale also along with Nolan caught the essence of the comics with stuff like the cape flowing.& Bale also is not a poser he actually did his own fight scenes, and stunts in majority and stood on top of the building in TDK, dont get me wrong I luv Burtons/Keatons version to but Nolan/Bale version is the best in all comic book films and Batman Begins & The Dark Knight are the best written and given comic book films since Superman the Movie, I respect Spider-man 1 & 2 also, so stop ur crying I am sure that The Dark Knight Rises will be great as well...Just because they use Hugo Strange as a villian does not mean that he will be the only and main villian, U all must 4get the Batman has argubly the best and most rogue gallery of villians ever, of course the Joker is a tuff act to follow but is can be followed. Not long ago many of U saying Riddler this Ridder that but if U would read Nolans actually comments he said "ALL DO RESPECT HE DOES NOT WANT TO USE MANY VILLIANS USED B4 HE WANTS TO EXPLORE VILLIANS NOT YET USED" Bottom line be patient & quit trying to guess the next movie bcuz if U don't enjoy it, it want be because it is not good, it will be because U tried to guess all of Batman mythology in one day, do go back and study Batmans world because in the DC Universe The Batman has 70 pluss year of stories and villians & take Batman's himself C.Bale's advice "Believe it when U hear it come from Chris Nolans mouth" not from anything one can put up on the internet.

No pun intended or disrespect to the creators and workers to this site.

I wish I could steal that script and read it!! I peed a little when I read this news, so exciting!

I really don't understand how Nolan could be a hack, boring director and overrated. All his films are character and story driven and very well thought out. Dude is as an intelligent filmmaker as they come. Also, he isn't one to have a huge ego either. He is a studios director-- that is, he doesn't bitch and moan when the studio interjects there desires for the films he is working on. I've read and seen a lot of interviews and he is very precise, direct, thought out, polite, and very considerate of what the studio over him wants from him (he understands that without the studios he would have no job!!). Dude is class act. A lot of so called directors could really learn from him. He treats you like an intelligent human being through his films instead of having shit just blow up and guys killing each other. All his films are on another level compared to most filmmakers out there today.

SuperKal: hey man how far back into the closet are you? Nolan's Batman may not be the %100 faithful adaption you want, but WB loves Nolan's work, and so does the general audience.

@superkal: Curious, what directors do you like?

StephenJ - 12/5/2010, 1:06 PM
@Superkal

I just thought I should say that Nolan does not put crap on screen, although his movies are not 100% accurate to the comics, his movies are still amazing. Whether you agree with that or not, He is still making money off of that AND he helped make $1,001,921,825 in gross revenue. You can say that it was because of Heath Ledgers death or anything all you want, BUT he was still the director in that movie. Just like I tell Deadpool about Smallville, you can hate it all you want, but at the end of the day they are still making money (Smallville lasted 10 seasons and TDK earned $1,001,921,825 in revenue. They must be good enough for that.)

Superkalkixass, you've just proven you're a spoiled little illiterate juvenile delinquent. You obviously haven't read ALL the Batman source materials (ie comic books, etc). Go back to school, you don't know ANYTHING at all about the Batman mythos. You can't even use the right grammar in your replies. Go back to your cave, poser.

Calling someone a retard when you haven't even looked at yourself in front of a mirror proves your lower IQ. Listen, you pea-brained-donkey-diarrhea-faced-baboon - have some facts to shore up what your brainless self is spouting before someone gets the initiative to wipe your manure-stained self off the face of the planet.

...sit down, shut up, read the news. Don't bother replying to me because that will only prove to everyone here that you're a glutton for punishment.... and if you even dare try to copy what I've just said, it'll go to show you're dumber than I thought you were.

@Superkal: well, I agree with Martin Campbell and Zach Snyder. Cameron has an ego...that dude is in outerspace. Burton's style in movies have been turning me away slowly with each movie he comes out with. He's still a great director and I would DEFINITELY choose Burton over Cameron and Michael Bay ANY day! I can't remember, did Burton direct Sweeney Todd??? That was a great film.

Superkalkixass how many movies have U done? who cares about what U think? oh thats right no one haz heard of ur movies, oh thats right no one but U cares about what U think, now listen here "little one or should I say nonBatman fan/no where near amazing" if U want to have a Batman show down animated, comic or live action I have some advice that two of the gr8test stars said b4 & that is..."Just Bring It & & That's the Bottomline! because U remind me of one of the 60's Batmans villians "EGGHEAD" lol! now lets put a smile :) on that face!

@superguy: the only new thing he did was make it a "real" story. It was a believable adaptation that pleased the fans and drew in a new crowd. I know I'm gonna get flak for sayin' this, but ALL Batman films before these were silly. Even every other CBM before these films weren't taking very serious (Raimi's Spidermans 1&2 could be exceptions but i don't think so). After Nolan really tried to make a movie about a dude in a batsuit serious and deal with real shit (emotionally and psychologically) he made an immensely powerful human connecting story that people gravitated to, that is what all successful films try to do.
