Entertainment.IE managed to chat for a bit with Sir Michael Caine - who plays Alfred in Christopher Nolan's
Batman trilogy - while he was promoting
Cars 2. In the brief interview, Caine said the following about the status of production for
The Dark Knight Rises, saying he won't be a part of production in the States 'for some time'...
The Dark Knight Rises has finished shooting in the UK and production has now moved to America. Caine let slip that he would not be going to America "for some time." Could mean anything; Alfred generally doesn't take part in action sequences and that may be what their shooting in America.
Caine also revealed some interesting info about the much-debated ending to Inception...
The end of Inception was real. "I've always said that if I was there then It's real," he told me as I was leaving.
The website will have the full interview up tomorrow, so be sure to check it out when it's released.
The Dark Knight Rises hits theaters July 20th, 2012!
