“The Dark Knight Rises,” which stars Christian Bale and Anne Hathaway, as well as Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Tom Hardy as Bane, arrives in theaters everywhere on July 20. The movie is the final installment in Nolan’s grim Gotham trilogy and the director — and his star — have made it clear that this is their final visit to the Batcave.
