IMDb just released a newsflash on an interview the Los Angeles Times had with Christopher Nolan, who explained that he has mixed emotions over ending his Batman trilogy. He tells them:
“It was pretty emotional as we would finish these characters and say goodbye to Alfred for the last time and say goodbye to Commissioner Gordon and eventually, with Christian (Bale), fairly close to the end.
“Saying goodbye to Batman… it was a big deal. And with these newer characters too, finishing with Anne (Hathaway) and all these guys. It was quite touching, I must say.”
