PanARMENIAN.Net - The Dark Knight Rises has released yet another TV spot ahead of its July 20 release, and it's short and sweet, The Hollywood Reporter said.

It also does a pretty good job of filling each of the 30 seconds with most of the main players -- Tom Hardy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Gary Oldman and Anne Hathaway all manage to appear -- and a new scene between Christian Bale's Bruce Wayne and Morgan Freeman's Lucius Fox.

Lucius gives Bruce a rundown of "The Bat," the aerial vehicle previously teased in the other trailers. Their exchange ends with one of the presumably few lighthearted moments of the film.

Based on the DC Comics character Batman, the film will be the third installment in Christopher Nolan 's Batman film series, and is a sequel to Batman Begins (2005) and The Dark Knight (2008).

The Dark Knight Rises is intended to be the conclusion of the series. The film will take place eight years after the events of The Dark Knight and will introduce the characters of Selina Kyle and Bane -portrayed by Anne Hathaway and Tom Hardy, respectively - two villains from the Batman mythology.
