It's all official and the speculation can end. Christopher Nolan's third and final Batman opus, Dark Knight Rising, will not Riddle you this. Rather it will reinvent Selina Kyla as Catwoman and Batman back-breaker Bane.
Anne Hathaway will be she of the claws and Inception's Tom Hardy will be Bane.
Unclear is whether Nolan is still following the storyline from the 5 issue Prey comic series, in which case the role of Dr. Hugo Strange would remain to be cast.
Hathaway is a little too nice to fit the image most folks have of Selina Kyle. If Nolan has an Achilles Heel it might be his casting of female roles -- Katie Holmes, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Scarlett Johansson, Ellen Page. All seem cut from the same cloth, type-wise and all have delivered underwhelming performances in otherwise stupefyingly good Nolan pictures. What Selina Kyle will be like with Hathaway is anybody's guess.
Just make sure we get plenty of Gary Oldman as Commissioner Gordon in this last outing, okay, Chris? Fascinating news, to be sure!
