First The Dark Knight Rises Teaser Released

The Summer of Film 2011 is nearing its end, with just Captain America, Super 8, Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Cowboys & Aliens left to hit cinemas before the Autumn months, but already we’ve got trailers to help us look forward to next year’s biggest season for blockbusters including this teaser for Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises. Like the recent poster, we don’t learn much about the finale’s overall plot, instead getting a few flashbacks to key scenes and lines of dialogue from Batman Begins. That said, the relevance of those glimpses at the past is clear: to truly rise, the Caped Crusader must remember what made him a hero in the first place, especially if he is to deal with the League of Shadows, Catwoman and the terrifying Bane in days to come. See what you think; The Dark Knight Rises releases in July 2012.
