Warner Bros. has released the first teaser trailer for Christopher Nolan‘s The Dark Knight Rises. We’ve placed the trailer below for your viewing pleasure.

The Dark Knight Rises stars Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, Tom Hardy, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Josh Pence, Michael Caine, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, and Nestor Carbonell. The film is set to release on July 20, 2012.

First and foremost, a big thanks to AvengerSite for finding this, but a YouTube poster has uploaded the post-credits tag for Captain America, featuring the first trailer for The Avengers. Watch the footage below before it gets pulled, but there’s plenty to enjoy and get excited about. Next May, remember that there’s some assembly required.

Remember, there are spoilers for both Captain America and The Avengers below. You’ve been warned.

Also, much like AvengerSite, we don’t claim responsibility for posting the trailer in any capacity other than passing the footage along.

EDIT: The footage has been removed, but in it’s place we leave with this image of Red Lantern Dex-Starr, as drawn by Tiny Titans artist Art Baltazar.

Warner Bros. has released the first teaser poster for Christopher Nolan‘s The Dark Knight Rises. The poster shows Gotham City crumbling and falling down, while the Bat Symbol rises above the chaos. The first teaser trailer is due with the release of  Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 this week, but until then, enjoy the teaser poster below.

With the success of Thor, we figured it was only a matter of time before we heard about the future of a sequel for the God of Thunder. Deadline Hollywood reported yesterday that Marvel Studios has decided to move forward with Thor 2. While Chris Hemsworth will return, director Kenneth Branagh won’t. Branagh left on ‘mutual and amicable’ terms and might serve the project in a producer role. The writers for the seqeul have yet to be named and after the news broke,  Ashley Miller posted on Twitter about his and Zack Stentz future with the project saying:

For the record, we know jack-diddly about what’s happening with the thunder god right now. And if we did, we wouldn’t be able to say.

While the future for the creative forces behind the first film are in flux, I’m quite glad to hear we’ll be spending more time with the Asgardians. 2013 already looks to be a busy year for Marvel Studios, Shane Black‘s Iron Man 3 will open on May 3, 2013.
