Tasty New Dark Knight Pic

Batman and the Joker officially pictured together for the first time? How did this awesome picture manage to find itself so innocuously hidden away in a New York Times interview with Christopher Nolan?

Yet again confirming our long-held belief that The Dark Knight is going to be the most awesome film of 2008 (quite possibly tied with Indy IV, Iron Man, Hellboy 2 and all the rest, of course), it shows a suitably miffed-looking Dark Knight in a police interrogation room with Heath Ledger’s Joker. Obviously, we’ve no idea how old Bats managed to apprehend the Clown Prince Of Crime or how many people were maimed along the way but we’re pretty sure the World's Greatest Detective is fulfilling the time-honoured role of bad cop.

We couldn’t be any more excited about this flick, how are your anticipation levels doing? Comment below.

Awesome!
My anticipation level is as high as it has ever been! I saw I'm Not There yesterday with Ledger in it and it was really weird and sad at the same time, because he's just brilliant and I think that what we have seen so far of Dark Knight clips just proves that he was a genius, and still is on screen! Can't wait, it will be a blast. The first Batman movie that will rock! (The other ones were just too long and yeah... you get my point?) ... Read More

I'm still a little disappointed that Ledger's Joker appears to wear make-up rather than having chemically bleached skin, but he looks fantastic and I trust Nolan implicitly. ... Read More

RE: Bat Costume
I can't believe they have kept the dreadful Batman "Tablecloth" cape look from Batman Begins... it looks like he brought the cape from a charity shop!!! Don't get me wrong - I loved Batman Begins. ... Read More
