Christian Bale says the upcoming movie “The Dark Knight Rises” will be the last time he dons the cape and cowl as Batman.
“‘I believe, unless Chris (Nolan) says different, this will be the last time I’m playing Batman,” he tells Total Film.
As for the rumors on who will be the adversary Batman faces off with in the next film, Bale says he puts no stock in the rumors floating around.
“Until Chris tells me, I don’t believe it,” Bale says. “It’s gotta be from his mouth, or else I don’t really know. Chris will let me know what I need to know when I need to know it. I probably know a little bit more than some other people out there, but I think most people would be surprised at how little I do know.”
“It just hasn’t been necessary yet. I know he’ll give me plenty of time to prepare for whatever I need to, and I’ll discover it,” he adds. “He’s a pretty damn good filmmaker. I trust that he’s going to come up with something wonderful.”

Probably a wise decision on Bale’s part unless a future fourth script is really something special that only his interpretation of Batman could pull off.

I wonder if they will introduce Robin in the next movie. I have not heard any mention of it so I do not think that they are even considering it as a possibility.
