BREAKING NEWS | Anne Hathaway Cast As Catwoman, Tom Hardy To Play Bane In The Dark Knight Rises


I really don't know how to feel about this news really. I was really hopping for Black Mask or Hugo Strange for the threequel but as long as it's in the hands of Christopher Nolan, this is probably going to be badass.
Early this morning it was announced that Anne Hathaway of Get Smart & Alice in Wonderland, has been cast to play Selina Kyle or better known as Catwoman.
Director Nolan stated, "I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Anne Hathaway, who will be a fantastic addition to our ensemble as we complete our story."
In other words, he can't wait to see her in the suit. Me neither.

Warner Bros. also dropped another bomb, this time with Tom Hardy, who previously worked with Nolan on the Oscar heavyweight Inception. It's been announced that he will be playing Bane, a steroid infused muscle freak who once broke Batman's back in the comics.
Interesting to see how Nolan grounds Bane's strength in reality. These two villains are definitely more flashy compared to the past two Batman villains who were more grounded in the cerebral and psychological. But hey, I questioned Heath Ledger before The Dark Knight, and I was dead wrong. Best is to sit back and let masterclass come to us.
The Dark Knight Rises will be the final installment in the Nolan Batman series and is slated to be released on July 20, 2012.
