C hristopher Nolan and company  only just started shooting last week, and already we have a still image of Tom Hardy in his full make up and costume as Bane. Read more to find out:

Hardy of course worked with Nolan in ‘Inception’ and now joins the likes of Liam Neeson, Cillian Murphy and of course Heath Ledger; as part of the Nolan Batman Rogue Gallery. Hardy will play ‘Bane’ alongside Anne Hathaway as ‘Catwoman’, and other ‘Inception’ stars: Joseph Gordon Levitt and Marion Cotillard in supporting roles. Here’s the image:

IT’S BANE YO!

And in case you are like many people and didn’t see the abomination of 1997: ‘Batman And Robin’, and were all like: “Man, who the hell Is Bane?!” here is a little write up courtesy of the BatmanWiki:

Bane is an escaped convict from an island prison in South America and a super-villain. Bane has abnormal strength as a result of having had experiments with a derivative of the drug Venom performed on him. He became known as “The Man Who Broke the Bat” when he broke Batman‘s spinal cord, forcing Bruce Wayne to give up the Batman persona while he recuperated

Here he is in the comic book:

 

From the comics.

And here he is from the freaking awful: Batman and Robin (1997) – the one with Arnold Schwarzenneger.

 

With Poison Ivy in the abomination that is 'BATMAN AND ROBIN' (1997).

Thanks for reading guys, there will be more ‘Dark Knight Rises’ info posted as it comes/leaks.

NOTE: You won’t see any hit whoring, like ‘OH MY GOD its a paparazzi shot of a green puddle in the middle of the desert!?! IS IT OOZE!!!’.

None of that shit.

Thanks again guys.
