Well well could it be that there may be a third installment of the Batman series from acclaimed director Christopher Nolan? Considering he did have a record-breaking blockbuster hit this summer with "The Dark Knight" many are beginning to wonder if the franchise will continue.
Its even possible that there are a slew of actor/actresses that could be on the docket including Angelina Jolie, Johnny Depp, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and even Cher.
So that we did not have to speculate anymore the infamous tight-lipped director spoke to the Los Angeles Times in a rare interview, hinting at a third film:
"Well... let me think how to put this. There are two things to be said. One is the emphasis on story. What's the story? Is there a story that's going to keep me emotionally invested for the couple of years that it will take to make another one? That's the overriding question. On a more superficial level, I have to ask the question: How many good third movies in a franchise can people name? [Laughs.] At the same time, in taking on the second one, we had the challenge of trying to make a great second movie, and there haven't been too many of those either. It's all about the story really. If the story is there, everything is possible."
When asked about what he might do next -- either another giant-sized blockbuster or something on a smaller scale -- Nolan seemed to have mixed feelings (Yahoo Movies).
"The Dark Knight" will be released on DVD and Blu-ray on December 8th. Warner Bros. Pictures has also indicated they might re-release the film into IMAX theaters in January to capitalize on it's Oscar potential. To date, the film has earned $527.8 million in the U.S. and almost $1 billion worldwide(Yahoo Movies).
All I can say is watch out now, its hot like fire!! I think Nolan will keep us in suspense and then hit us when we least expect it. Either way I will be waiting patiently!!!
