[Conebone69]

Is Bale returning for the third installment or does anyone know?

[odiin]

Yes.

[Conebone69]

Yes.
Awesome, is it confirmed

[Rezzo]

He´s contracted for three films as are Gary Oldman and Michael Caine

What are you talking about?

Morgan Freeman I´m not sure about since he was only contracted for one film but was brought back for TDK so it´s possible he could come back for a third film unless his character dies in TDK

I hope everyone returns for the 3rd film. But yeah I think they should kill him in TDK if he dosent return for 3

[DRUMM3RBOY]

i think joker should live in tdk and in the third movie batman can take robin as his side kick and they can kill him together also they can kill two face who should be in the third

Unlike the previous franchise, I think we should stray away from the Killing-off-the-rogue-by-films-end scenario.

Joker shouldn't die, Scarecrow shouldn't die, Two-Face shouldn't die. And they should resurrect Ras' with the Lazarus Pit. I mean you saw him close his eyes pre-monorail crash. He knew his body would be recovered and dumped into a pit to bring him back.

I just don't like the idea anymore:

"Well we need to get set to bring in more villians, what should we do?"
"I know, we'll have them fall from really high up..."

No more. How about they actually started shipping rogues to Arkham, perhaps. That's what it's ****in' there for, right?

Yeah, I agree, I hate when they kill of Villains because then they can never be used again in a future movie, unless they reboot the franchise.

Bale is contracted for 3 films but the 3rd film in his contract could be the JLA film, so who knows? I really, truly hope Nolan, Bale and the rest of the cast come back for a 3rd film but I guess that would figure on how good the reaction is to TDK. I just hope WB doesn't sabotage this series by making the JLA film before the 3rd Batman film or instead of a 3rd Batman film.

JLA might be being produced by WB, but the contract is for Batman films. JLA is a spinoff with Batman. He shouldn't be contracted to that.

It's important to remember that during the Batman Begins roundtables at WonderCon in 2005, Christian Bale told us that he had a clause in his contract that one of the three films he was signed on to do could in fact be an ensemble picture. Now, at the time, everyone was thinking Batman vs. Superman (please excuse the old school iesb) but it could just as easily be something like Justice League.

[BurtonBegan]

[Darkknight2099]

Justice League of America.

Still means they are going to have to restructure the deal if Bale is getting a third with Nolan... so either way WB needs to make a change somewhere.

[bestever23]

I pray he's In the JLA movie and Batman 3

JLA can't have everyone but batman. I don't give a damn what Jett says He's one of the Co Founders, Him and Superman and Wonder Woman

so Don't tell me Batman will be out of his element because he's freakin batman.

[Damiean Dark]

Forget what Jett says he is clearly too close to WB AND HIS site has become a Nolan, WB love in IMO. And your right Batman, Superman and Wonderwoman are the fouding members of the JL they should be there.

personally i would like it to be more about batman and show him in the JLA.
then in 4th its jla if they make 1

[Rorschach2012]

Hayell yess!!

[Spidey220987]

With the course they're taking with the titles (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight), does anyone think the third film in the franchise will be called "The Caped Crusader" :oldrazz: :ninja: lol

they could always have Ken Wattanabe come back as Ras seeing as it is possible he could be alive. Also on topic uh Bale said in an interview I believe he would want to be batman as long as there are good scripts and stories.Something to that effect.

[Jick09]

Bale has to return.
Batman without him.........just isn't Batman.

Liam Neeson was Ras' Al Ghul. Ken Watanabe was merely covering as Ras' while the real Ras' went under the name and disguise of Henri Ducard. In a way, Watanabe was essentially Ubu.

[Changeling]

he is confirmed!
