Was John Blake Supposed To End Up In Robin’s Suit At The End Of THE DARK KNIGHT RISES?

How many Batman fans just raised their eyebrows with hope?

While we saw a little hint of things to come at the end of Christopher Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, many fans were left disappointed that they never got a chance to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt as either Batman, Robin or Nightwing.

Despite many hoping a deleted scene would appear with the contrary (especially after seeing images of fake Batman action figures with a new suit earlier this year…), Joseph Gordon-Levitt is saying in a new interview with MTV that there were never any thoughts of putting him in the famous suit:

“Honestly, no, we never talked about that…And honestly I know a lot of people talk about the ending of that movie being a setup for a sequel, but I don’t think that’s necessarily what it is. It’s a great, perfect ending for that trilogy.”

Christopher Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT RISES is in theaters now.  If you still haven’t seen it, push away your boulder, dust yourself off, and take a walk to your nearest theater.
