Marion Cotillard snapped on set of The Dark Knight Rises

Yet another photo has been leaked from the Pittsburgh set of The Dark Knight Rises , but this one shouldn't come as a surprise to those who believed that there was more to Marion Cotillard’s character Miranda Tate than first met the eye.

The image seems to confirm suspicions that she may in fact be playing Talia Al Ghul in Christopher Nolan’s third and final Batman epic and that her other role is a cover-up to gain Bruce Wayne’s trust.

Cotillard is pictured in close-up wearing what appears to be an eastern themed jacket, something that well-meaning Wayne Enterprises board member Miranda Tate probably wouldn’t be seen dead in, but which fits in with the back story of Talia who was brought up in the east.

Talia Al Ghul is Ra’s Al Ghul’s daughter who in Nolan’s film will no doubt resent Batman for causing her father’s death.

Ra’s appeared in Batman Begins (played by Liam Neeson) as the leader of the League of Shadows and bringer of fire to Wayne Manor. Perhaps his daughter has taken up his quest to destroy Gotham?

If she does turn out to be Tate/Talia, then that certainly explains how Bane has got hold of the Wayne Enterprise tumblers...
