I found it kind of odd that no one has asked Bane Co-Creator Chuck Dixon his thoughts on the casting, the writer certainly does deserve much credit for making Bane such a popular bat-villain. Having a friendship with him on Facebook I asked his opinion on the casting of famous Batman creation Bane.
"How do you feel about Tom Hardy being cast as Bane in the 3rd Christopher Nolan Batman Film?" "I feel pretty good about it. Since an actor will be portraying him rather than a wrestler. He'll get more screen time and possibly be closer to the guy Graham and I created."
This certainly gives me a warm feeling knowing that Mr. Dixon allowed me to write this article, and with his opinion on the casting I certainly hope this allows many Bane and Batman fans to turn the other cheek and respect Christopher Nolan's casting choice.
Thank you all for reading, many thanks granted to Mr. Chuck Dixon for permission to use his quote for the story.
Comment down below leaving your opinions on The Dark Knight Rises and whether or not you feel it will be better then the Dark Knight, as I'm sure I'm not the only Batman fan who certainly hopes so.
