Hot on the heels of the Iron Man 2 release (actually a hair before, but hey), Warner Bros. made an announcement everyone has been waiting for. Batman 3 is coming people. He isn’t set to return until 2012, and technically the project hasn’t even been greenlit yet, but the studio still set a date for July 20.
The announcement came as part of the studios IMAX plans, which include 20 films before the end of 2013. Once again we’ll be treated to the directorial tastes of Christopher Nolan. His brother, Jonathan, will pen the script.
In most cases I’d call it strange to put out an announcement so far in advance without full approval/funding, but The Dark Knight made a billion dollars. I’m sure the third installment will do just fine.
