The Dark Knight Rises Batwing Revealed?
Civilian Ross Petrocelli spotted a mysterious vehicle going through the Wabash Tunnel in Pittsburgh, on the way to the set of Christopher Nolan's final Batman adventure The Dark Knight Rises. There is heavy speculation that this vehicle is the Batwing, which has long been rumored to be one of Bruce Wayne's (Christian Bale) new hi-tech contraptions in the film. Check it out below and let us know what you think.


The Dark Knight Rises comes to theaters July 20th, 2012 and stars Liam Neeson, Tom Hardy, Christian Bale, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Anne Hathaway, Gary Oldman, Aidan Gillen, Marion Cotillard. The film is directed by Christopher Nolan.

@themoviefanatic: The way it's propped up on that truck makes it look like some Transformers robot. :P

I was wondering why that circle was there. It's dumb that, that circle is in the photo, because the Batwing isn't hard to find in the photo.

@everyone who says it's not the batwing - this is the batwing mounted on another vehicle to move it around and this lower half will be removed in the post production throug CG

The actual images from the movie that are not set images for it, will not be coming out until sometime next year, when we're not too far away from the theatrical release of this movie. So, with these set images recently released here, i am not feeling the least bit spoiled for it just yet.

@sean What do you think is coming after they've leaked these set images??? If the "leaks" keep coming out at this rate, it is just a matter of time before "actual images from the movie" are all over the internet. It's ridiculous that you folks are so amazed by half ass set images, and stuntwomen destroying IMAX cameras. Love film for films sake, not your own.

At least their just prodcution set images, and not actual images from the movie. If that were the case, then that would completely ruin the movie for us.

I am a fan of film, and more important I am a fan of comic superheros, especially Batman. But whoever is putting these photos out is ruining the production process of this film. We are getting tid bits of scenes that are important to The Dark Knight Rises' story. All I have to say is its a damn shame.

Isn't that just the Tumbler disassembled? Either way, there's definitely not going to be a Batwing in Nolan's film.

@sexyman1 yeah, I can't really tell what it is either. looks like the top of the Tumbler. Note that nobody calls the Tumbler a Batmobile.

It actually looks nothing like one of George Lucas's man toys, but that was the first thing that popped to mind. Whatever, I'm going to sleep. I can't wait for the rest of the movie to be posted.

Wow, what else did they steal from the Echo Base on Hoth?

On second thought, it seems a little too small for it to be the Batwing. It may as well perhaps be the replacement top of Batman's Tumblr. Who knows?

Yea ya know a couple pics are cool but day after day of sh*tty videos and pics. I mean come on I like CBMs as much as the next guy. But really no one wants to be surprised any more? Thats alittle much even for you hardcore fans! Ya know the nice thing about The Dark Knight was all you really saw was a close up fo Heath's face and then you still did'nt know if that was for real or not! And Bane sounds like a retared old man trying to scare children with a ghost story in these vid clips! Disappointing! And Catwomen looks like a flatchested gamer trash with grandma blueblockers on! Oh yeah can't wait for it!
