MTV reported on an interview Sir Michael Caine (The Dark Knight Rises) gave to The Mirror about ending the “Batman” movie trilogy. Not much new came out about the film, “On Batman you get shot if you speak about it,” he said to the paper, but he give the assurance that “this one will definitely be the best ever.” He also gave a little insight into the man behind the “Batman” reboots, Christopher Nolan.

“When yo do one of the films its like signing the Official Secrets Act,” he said. “The director Chris Nolan is the most secretive guy. The first time he came to me for Batman he came to my house in the country on a Sunday morning. I opened the door and he was standing there with a script. He said, ‘Do you want to play the Butler?’ He stayed while I read it and took the script away. He wouldn’t trust me with it!”
