Sir Michael Caine appeared on BBC Radio 1’s “The Chris
Moyles Show” on Wednesday to promote his autobiography “The Elephant to
Hollywood” and talk turned to director Christopher Nolan’s third Batman movie. He
said the movie will “probably start in May next year...” Asked if he will be
part of the cast, he said, “I assume I’m there. In the movie business, you
never believe anything, you assume.” He added that Chris and co-writer Jonathan Nolan are not
telling anyone who the villain will be in the new film. In related news, Chris Nolan confirmed to Empire
today that he is indeed directing, in case you had any doubts. Warner Bros. Pictures is targeting a July 20, 2012 release
date for the film.
