Batman Sequel Left up to Nolan!

So we are hearing that the door is wide open for Chris Nolan’s return to the Batman franchise - in fact, Warner Bros. and DC may well scrap for the man - but they are leaving him to direct the threequel being entirely up to him.

According to the, Hollywood Reporter article that traces the growth of The Dark Knight back three years, producer Charles Roven is copying Horn’s stance that the right of first refusal belongs to Christopher Nolan.

“There are a lot of us who emotionally would love to do it,” Roven says. “But it’s really Chris’ call. Chris is the kind of filmmaker who just doesn’t think about the next movie before he has completely finished the movie he is working on.”When will we find out? Sometime after Nolan returns from his extended holiday. “When he comes back, we will see how he feels,” Roven insists.

So this is a topic that will not die until a third film ends up in theaters. Nolan and his team are under lots of pressure to build upon the story of Batman they have laid out. My opinion is that how they ended they still have al ot of material they want to continue exlporing whether that be Batman’s Redemption or a full circle story bringing the most complex inner and outer demon of the Bat out. All the talk that we have done about the Riddler, Catwoman, Penguin and other villains that they can bring in is exactly what happened to the Batman franchise after the 1989 film and the fans had too much input thus creating crowd pleasing villains and shitty! movies!

I feel like Nolan should come back and tell more of the story but certainly it will be interesting if he doesn;t and Warner Bros really won’t pull out another sequel, I do not know if I buy that part of the story.
