The Los Angeles Times reports that “The Dark Knight Rises” will be the title of the third Christopher Nolan-directed “Batman” film.

Nolan tells Geoff Boucher that the Riddler won’t be the villain of the piece. Nolan has previously eliminated Mr. Freeze from consideration.

Boucher asked Nolan if Warner Bros. would allow him to make a Batman film without a signature villain from the comic books.  Nolan declined to specifically answer, but did agree to eliminate the Riddler from contention.

Who do you think will be the villain of “The Dark Knight Rises”?  Share your thoughts in the comments!
