Batman fans will be thrilled to hear that The Dark Knight Rises will be releasing its third and latest trailer on May 4, attaching it with the new Avengers movie.
According to "Nolan Fans," a screenshot appeared on the official Warner Bros. website listing that The Dark Knight Rises will be placed in The Avengers' 2D, 3D, and Imax theaters. The listing states:
The Avengers (2D/3D): The Dark Knight Rises (TR3-2D) New Version
The Avengers (IMAX 2D/3D): The Dark Knight Rises (IMAX TR3-2D) New Version
Discussions were determining whether Marvel's The Avenger would consider attaching The Dark Knight Rises trailer to the film. Batman may certainly take away some of The Avengers thunder since both films are currently pitted against each another for top superhero flick of the year.
It is interesting to know that The Dark Knight's final trailer was released with Iron Man's film in May 2008.
It would also mark nearly one year since the marketing team from Warner Bros. first launched The Dark Knight Rises official website in May 2011. TDKR's viral marketing campaign utilized encrypted audio that sounded like chanting. Once fans decipher the code, it provides a link to a Twitter page where the first official image of Bane was revealed.
Additional marketing materials have surfaced since then including a leaked prologue trailer featuring Bane. The upcoming trailer may reveal even more footage of Bane, offering fans a closer look at the Dark Knight's foe. Looking from past released trailers, Bane appears systematic in his terrorist plots and also a physical threat to Batman.
Fans also got a glimpse at another popular Batman character Catwoman in its second trailer along with leaked photos. Actress Anne Hathaway portrays the caped crusader's sexy rival Catwoman, aka Selina Kyle who dances with Bruce Wayne in TDKR's second trailer.
The latest news would shoot down past rumor that the new TDKR trailer may be attached to Tim Burton's Dark Shadows. No word yet on when the trailer will be available online. For those planning to see The Avengers, you will be sure to get a little extra value for your movie ticket.
