In a recent interview with Empire Magazine David Goyer, the screenwriter of The Dark Knight Rises describe the moment that he saw the final scene of the film.



“The final scene of ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ is exactly the scene we talked about. It remained completely unchanged. We both knew in our hearts that we were onto something special. I have to tell you, having finally seen everything strung together a little while ago and seeing that scene, I got a complete lump in my throat,”



Of course some people have taken that quote to mean a grim finale, and perhaps the death of Batman.



"I think, really, people are reading too much into David's quote, actually. If you read the context of it, he's very diplomatically talking about just fulfilling the promise of what we had initially talked about in terms of having a complete story, and ending the story."



"Really, what David was saying was that we figured out the ending before we figured out anything else. I think he was very happy with how we realized the conclusion of the story."



"Everybody talking on behalf of the film knows they don't want to ruin anything for the audience, so they're all trying to be careful."



"I don't really want to talk about the ending of the film. We wouldn't want to give that away."





The Dark Knight Rises hits theaters July 20th 2012 and stars Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Michael Caine as Alfred Pennyworth, Gary Oldman as Jim Gordon, Tom Hardy as Bane, Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as John Blake and Marion Cotillard as Miranda Tate.
