The one-sheet reflects that of the final poster art for The Dark Knight, which appeared in 2008. A city in ruins, a city crumbling to it's knees, the bat symbol shines through as a ray of hope towards the sky.

The image comes from the new official website for The Dark Knight Rises at thedarkknightrises.com
Expect a teaser trailer to be attached with this week's release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 in IMAX, which you'll be able to watch right here, plus, and more media coming soon as we hit the 2011 Comic-Con next week! Stay tuned...
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.

R'as Al Ghul returns! The cult that chants "Rise" refers to his return from the grave. We'll see the Lazarus Pit in this movie.

This looks like the inception poster but I love this poster. Just from looking at this poster I can see sh*t is going to go down between Batman and Bane it is going to be all kinds of bad ass

@narrator Don't worry I'm not hating on you. I don't even spend that much time on this website like I once did to play games with you. Also I only threw in that "smart ass line" because to myself it sounded like I was being one which I was not trying to do.
@slysnide That was a damn good explanation of the "symbols".

@unknown21, lol. I'd have just taken you at your word, but now that you threw that "I'm not being a smart ass" bit in, I'm kind of cautious now. There's so many twists in life, and I'd hate for you to be to be of them. :P
@slysnide, very good explanation of the "symbols" of the bat. Lol. And yeah, the character posters, should there be any, are going to kick serious ass.

@narrator I've completely forgotten all about that teaser poster thanks for the flashback and no I'm not being a smart ass lol

@narrator: And it's not much different than the other teaser poster they're all referring to, being the one with the flaming bat signal in the building, which implied terrorism, aka: Chaos. The bat signal implied batman being responsible in some form or another, as he did take the fall for Dent's crimes. This poster seems to imply that gotham will once again be prey to a destructive force, aka: The League of Shadows which will strike harder than before, leaving batman to redeem himself as he rises to overcome the new evil. Symbolism runs rampant in both posters. I can't wait to see their presumed character posters in 6 months or so. Not to mention the real 2 minute teaser trailer that'll probably be tagged with "A Game of Shadows" this December.

Don't go comparing this to TDK's "Welcome to a world without rules" poster too much, guys. This is a teaser poster. The Dark Knight's teaser poster was merely a Joker smiley face on a brick wall, with the lips forming a bat. Now that was a modest teaser poster. But this? This is a fantastic TEASER poster.
Jeez, I'd love to see you folk actually do better... though, I know some of you actually can. But that's beside the point, damn it!

@unknown21
Oh no, I think this will be a good movie, don't know if will be better than TDK and not just because of The Joker just because it had a sociological aspect that I found to be fantastic!

@themoviefanatic Top right corner looks to be Liam neeson and the other one is under the left "wing" of the bat signal.
