Dark Knight Rises in Summer 2012 as Grownup Blockbuster Movies for Grownups

2012 Summer Blockbuster Preview ' The Dark Knight Rises'

Veteran actors give heft to latest ' Batman' film

Sneak Peek at Summer 2012 Blockbusters

The Dark Knight Rises July 20

The most grownup of all the superhero franchises is back, and although Batman himself, Christian Bale, is just 38, he’s surrounded by a who’s who of veteran stars, including Liam Neeson (59), Gary Oldman (54), Morgan Freeman (74) and Michael Caine (79). Gotham City is being terrorized by a bad guy named Bane (Tom Hardy) who, among other things, blows up the burg’s entire football team in mid-game (in the movie’s trailer, at least, running back Heinz Ward still scores!). Batman returns from exile just in time to foil Bane … we hope!
