From misc online sourses and based on WB's latest press conference with my thoughts included:
-As of now the film is scheduled to be released in 2011. The third sequel is title "BATTLE FOR GOTHAM," but that could change in time. (I hope they do change it.) Christopher Nolan is returning behind the camera but a few other choice nuggets as well:
- Johnny Depp is officially discussing the possibility of coming on board as The Riddler (apparently he and Bale got really close during the filming of Michael Mann's PUBLIC ENEMIES last year). This isn't 100% just yet, but it's close. (Now this is awesome, Depp as Riddler)
- TITANIC director James Cameron will apparently attend the BATTLE FOR GOTHAM press conference on Thursday, which had led to rumors about possibly bringing back the Joker in a small cameo (flashback) and get this...it would be a computer-generated version of Heath Ledger as the Joker using ultra-realistic texture-mapping and advanced personality algorithms designed by Cameron's company. (RIP Heath..I don't think it would feel right if someone else played the joker, so I'm glad if they are heading in that directioni)
- The film will apparently be a much darker, grittier version and seems geared to feature the fall (& rise) of Gotham City, and would therefore be looking for a R-rating...(xD, Makes me happy.)
-"I'm not crazy about computer-generated "people" in movies, but according to many folks, James Cameron has apparently perfected "CGI human beings" for his next feature AVATAR and assured everyone that his firm would be able to re-create Ledger and his actions (respectfully) for the next film. Technology rocks!"
(I totally agree
)
