With 'Batman 3' release date, 2012 will see a superhero summer showdown Chris Nolan is staying on a biannual schedule. With the director's "The Dark Knight" breaking box-office records in 2008 and "Inception" poised to become a phenomenon this summer, fans will wait exactly two more years before seeing his next effort on the screen. Warner Bros. confirmed today that "Batman 3" (not its final title, obviously) will come out in the summer of 2012, on July 20. In addition to making fanboys the world over salivate with eager anticipation, that also sets up a box-office rematch of sorts between Nolan's Batman franchise, a DC creation, and the movies from Marvel's stable of characters, as "The Avengers," the supergroup of superhero Marvel movies, comes out a few months earlier (in May). |
