The Dark Knight director drops out of The Prisoner to focus on the next installment in the Batman Begins reboot franchise.
Did I get your attention? Good. Now, before you get too excited, let me clarify…
While there has been no official studio announcement that director Christopher Nolan will return for a third installment of the new Batman franchise. A recent announcement purports that Nolan is leaving the production of The Prisoner to focus on development of the next Batman film.
Back in June, actor Christian Bale lamented that he is obligated to appear as Bruce Wayne/Batman in a third Batman movie, but that Nolan had no such contract stipulation to direct.
“I truly don’t know that we’re ever going to see another Batman movie. It would be purely that (Nolan) would need to find a story that was good enough and if he couldn’t find that it wouldn’t happen.”
Bale went on to say that he didn’t want to consider playing Batman without Nolan at the helm.
“I don’t even want to think about that. I don’t know if there will be a third.”
