Christopher Nolan‘s eagerly-awaited Batman sequel debuted new stills of Tom Hardy‘s Bane, Christian Bale‘s superhero facing off against the villain and Gary Oldman‘s Commissioner James Gordon through EW.com.

Director Nolan also addressed the issue of Bane’s distinct voice in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly. Many Batman fans emerged from the recent IMAX prologue screenings claiming that it was difficult to understand Bane’s dialogue, however Nolan insisted that the villain’s voice will make sense within the context of the movie.

“I think when people see the film, things will come into focus,”

he said.

“Bane is very complex and very interesting and when people see the finished film people will be very entertained by him.”

Warner Bros reportedly released a new sound mix for the prologue to address the issues around the clarity of Bane’s speech.

Bale, who is making his final appearance as Batman, admitted that he felt “immense pressure” putting on the Bat-suit for the last time.

“I can tell you the truth because I’m done with it: I felt immense pressure,”

he commented.

“And I think it’s a good pressure, because you owe it to the films – and the people’s expectations – to make great work.”

The trailer for The Dark Knight Rises recently broke the record for the most downloaded trailer on iTunes.
