Batman 3 to start shooting in April

Though we’re wary of stars revealing shooting dates after Ian McKellen’s hope-begging reports about The Hobbit (which were thrown to the wind in the face of MGM’s strife), we really hope that Caine’s comments come true.

While talking to Digital Spy at the premiere of Inception last week, Caine was asked if he knew if his character Alfred would be returning for Batman 3 .

“I don’t know about that but I think they’re gonna do it in April,” he said. “That’s about as much as I know.”

Considering he’s been in every Chris Nolan film since Batman Begins , we assume Caine’s on a first-name basis with the Brit director. Which means hopefully he’s heard something on the grapevine to make him draw that shooting date conclusion.
