Dark Knight

The Dark Knight is a sequel to 2005’s Batman Begins, which rebooted the Batman franchise after an eight-year hiatus. Christopher Nolan returns as the director, and Christian Bale reprises the lead role. Batman’s primary conflicts in the film come from his fight against the Joker (Heath Ledger) and his strained friendship with district attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart).

For the film, Nolan took inspiration from the Joker’s first two appearances in the comics and, as with the first film, he used Batman: The Long Halloween as a major influence on the story. The Dark Knight was filmed primarily in Chicago (as was Batman Begins), as well as several other locations in and outside the United States. The director used an IMAX camera to film four major action sequences, including the Joker’s first appearance in the film. The Batsuit was redesigned with a cowl allowing Bale to move his head. A recreation of the Batcycle, known as the Batpod, will be introduced.

The Dark Knight will be released on July 17, 2008 in Australia followed by the United States on July 18, 2008 and on July 25, 2008 in the United Kingdom.
