Next Batman Movie in 2011?

January 26, 2009

New Jersey's Courier-Post talked to Batman Begins and The Dark Knight executive producer Michael Uslan, who expects the third installment of the Christopher Nolan-directed films, starring Christian Bale, to hit theaters in 2011:

Uslan will be onboard as executive producer for the "Dark Knight" sequel, which he estimates will be theaters by 2011. As for the identity of the next round of Batman's supervillains and love interests, Uslan remains tight-lipped. "It's one of those deals where if I told you, I'd have to kill you," he says with a chuckle.

In related news, while The Dark Knight did not receive the Producer of the Year Award at the Producers Guild of America Awards on Saturday (it went to Slumdog Millionaire), the movie did receive awards at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday - Heath Ledger won for Best Supporting Actor and The Dark Knight also won Outstanding Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture.

Don't know how official this statement is. But I wouldn't doubt that'd it come out in 2011. And it rlly looks like all signs are pointing to Christopher Nolan directing so that's excellent!

Sounds about right. Nolan will probably direct another movie before going back to Batman, just like he did with the Prestige.

i bet the next villain is seymour hoffman - they like to choose people who are unexpectedly good at being crazy - like ledger but unfortunately not unlike johnny depp (who we all already expect to be crazy) if i were them id take robert downey jr. based on what ive seen in natural born killers, he plays a mean physopath.

I hope that for the next villain it's the other end of the spectrum this time. Instead of being all wacked out and crazy like Ledger's Joker, the villain would be extremely calm and patient. And I hope it's not Depp as the new villain. Depp is great but Hoffman would be better.
