Producer Charles Rovin recently talked with Black Film about the upcoming film THE DARK KNIGHT.

"The script is in the process of being written," Rovin said. "There isn't a screenplay that exists right now."

Talking about how the film got it's name Rovin said, "It was a title that Chris (Nolan) suggested and everybody really embraced. We thought it was a really good natural progression from "Batman Begins."

Regarding when the film will start production Rovin said, "We are supposed to start shooting what we call a pre-shoot, which we know what that is, in January and the main body of the film will start in March."

So have they said when they're aiming to release this?

If they shoot in March, would that mean a Holiday 07?

I also can't wait for this. Maybe it will come out towards the end of year, closer to a Thanksgiving or Xmas release to take advantage of the Holidays.

This would be a great movie but THUNDERCATS would make a great movie too. I hope somebody makes it.

I think they're looking at a summer 2008 release for this.

No script, No screenplay? I guess I'm the only one concerned about that.

THUNDERCATS ??????????????????/

The talk has always been a summer '08 release, although this schedule would suggest they could meet holiday '07 if so inclined. And no reason to worry ALMOST, a script still being in development is not unusual for a film still 7 months from shooting. Why do you feel worried?
