"I wrapped a few days ago so that will be the last time
I'm taking that cowl off. ... I believe that the whole production wrapped
yesterday, so it's all done. Everything's finished. It's me and Chris – that
will be the end of that Batman era." So said Christian Bale about next
summer's The Dark Knight Rises.

Bane takes on Batman |
While promoting his upcoming film The Flowers of War, the
Oscar-winning actor told the Philippine Daily Inquirer that he knew his co-star
Anne Hathaway was perfect to play Catwoman when they shot her screen test
together:

What does Bane |
"When Chris [Nolan, the director] watched the screen
test, he agreed that Anne did a wonderful job. In many ways, she has the
hardest job. There are a number of people who feel that the Catwoman role has
been defined previously. So, I always saw Anne's role as being the toughest job
of any of us. In my case, I've stopped referencing outside sources. I now
reference Chris' own world of Batman as a guide to what I will continue
doing."
Bale similarly praised Bane actor Tom Hardy as "a
phenomenal actor." He added, "I know that Bane has been seen in
movies before. But, in my eyes, Tom is essentially creating Bane for the first
time so there's great freedom for him to be able to do so."
