Are they taking nominations for the MacArthur Fellows Program? We only ask because the person who made this series of mashup photos combining the Christopher Nolan and Tim Burton Batman films is a genius of the highest order. Behance.net user Butcher Billy is the one behind this particular set of wonders, and we'd need Joker gas to smile more than we have at their work.

Even if you haven't already seen The Dark Knight Rises, chances are you've been made aware to the fact that Anne Hathaway portrays Selina Kyle. As in, Catwoman. Not that it's ever explicitly stated in the film. There's also talk going around as to what will happen now that the trilogy of films is complete and what it means for those who have starred in them. Perhaps, eventually, there could even be a Catwoman spin-off.

Most of us are waiting somewhat patiently for the release of The Dark Knight Rises on July 20th. But for those who can't manage to wait a little less than two weeks, Warner Bros has put out an intriguing 13 minute video with some discussion between the actors, actresses, and other folks behind the movie. Christopher Nolan, Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, and Anne Hathaway all put in appearances to explain their characters and offer some insight. Excitement? Excitement!

This is not a rumor.  It's in the freaking New York Times. The Dark Knight Rises will star, among others, Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, an Tom Hardy as Bane. At least we now know, at long last, that Tom Hardy's beard has nothing to do with his role in TDKR.
