‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Teaser Poster

Poster for The Dark Knight Rises

Warner Bros’ official site for The Dark Knight Rises, directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale, revealed the first poster from the much-anticipated 2012 film (the third Batman film from Nolan/Bale).

Official Synopsis: It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon both hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act.

But everything will change with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. Far more dangerous, however, is the emergence of Bane (Tom Hardy), a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane.
