I’m still not 100% confident this is true (won’t believe it until officially confirmed on the Comic-Con website or an official press release from Warner Bros) but it certainly made my little geeky heart skip a beat. 

Chris Nolan & ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Will Be At Comic Con 2012!

“I was rather surprised when I asked about Comic Con 2012 since ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ opens after it which is unusual as all the big Nolan movies have opened before the San Diego event kicked off including Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and Inception. After confirming with several of our sources, this is what they had to say.

“Warner Bros was hoping that Chris would take advantage of Comic Con 2012 since he’s never been so it looks like they’ll be a panel with Chris, Tom Hardy and Anne Hathaway. We’re not sure about Christian Bale, but since this is the final Batman movie for them, I can’t imagine him not attending…but you know how Christian can be,” Our other source at the Bros house said. “Chris [Nolan] would love to keep it a surprise appearance, but in this day and age, it’s pretty impossible.

Since it’s still early, and Nolan will be more focused on finishing ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ it sounds like there’ll be some sneak peek footage and a killer Q&A. Don’t be surprised to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt there too since he’s just that type of guy.”

This will be my first year attending Comic-Con and I’ve already been forewarned about the ridiculous lines for more popular material. Something like this would result in my “wasting” several hours of the day waiting in line. Worth it?
