Fresh 'Dark Knight Rises' Trailer Hits The Web; Guess What's New?

A new full-length trailer for The Dark Knight Rises  has made its way online today. There’s plenty of new footage all throughout the teaser, but the most attention grabbing features are of the villain Bane and a broken Batman mask.

With only a month to go, promotion is on rapid fire for the The Dark Knight Rises.  More unseen footage is being released showing Christian Bale in action as the caped crusader. So what else is shown that hasn’t been seen before in all the teaser trailers, TV spots, and posters?  This time, Gordon-Levitt’s John Blake can be seen talking with a young boy about whether or not Batman was to ever come back.

There are new cuts of interesting and comical words from Alfred and Lucious, and new snippets of  the explosive  physical battles between Bane and Batman are definitely not left out.

However, it’s  Bane who’s the focal point of the latest trailer. He is heard self proclaiming to be “Gotham’s reckoning” to an unknown victim and portrayed strutting with an impenetrable evil villain swagger as  he nonchalantly tosses Batman’s broken mask.

The film boasts a solid cast consisting of  Marion Cotillard, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Aidan Gillen, Juno Temple and Matthew Modine.  The Dark Knight Rises flies into theaters on July 20th.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
