The Dark Knight Rises plot leaked online

Chris Nolan has been keeping security around his third Batman movie venture pretty airtight over the past few months.

But he may have overlooked a breach somewhere, as one online source is claiming that it’s gotten its hands on the (very basic-sounding) plot for The Dark Knight Rises.

Batman-On-Film report that the threequel's plot follows Batman’s fight against the League of Shadows, the vigilante organisation spearheaded by Talia al Ghul, who has Bane (Tom Hardy) as her love interest protector.

According to BOF, Joseph Gordon-Levitt will play a member of the League, while Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) will join forces with Batman to fight the organisation at the film's close.

BOF have given no source for their information, with a basic “we know because we just do” post on their Facebook page.

Despite our reservations about these things, the plot does sound pretty legit – especially when you consider the League originally showed up in Batman Begins, which would give Rises a very trilogy-esque dove-tail closer.
