Ever since the first audiences streamed out of movie theaters after seeing The Dark Knight on opening day there has been talk about a possible sequel. As yet, that sequel doesn’t actually exist, with no script and only initial ideas on the table. But that hasn’t stopped the rumors from coming thick and fast.
