15 Years of Coverage (2010-2025)
Yesterday thousands of extras filled up Heinz Field for a scene in The Dark Knight Rises. Bane showed up, and while it's hard to hear him, we get our first listen at what he might sound like. Check out the video of Bane's scene and photos from the shoot, courtesy of some really brave fans. No huge plot points are revealed, but if you're avoiding spoilers, don't watch the video!

Maybe its Batman? or Catwoman?
Wow that voice through me off, wasn't expecting that at all. He does sound realy old, i wanted a deeper voice.
I'm starting to think Bane is going to have a lot of day-time scenes....maybe because batman would be more unlikely to come out during the day?...
I think the fanboys who feel the need to criticize everything should just not read any Batman news for the next year. You guys are complaining about Tom Hardy's height but you have no idea how Nolan is filming him. There are camera tricks to make people appear taller. You guys are complaining about Selina Kyle's costume when we don't even know if this is the final version. And now you're complaining about Bane's voice. Did it ever occur to you that this is meant to show that Ban is sick? For all we know, he's suffering from Venom withdrawal. So here's some advice for the fanboys. Go take your ADHD meds and learn some patience before you overreact to everything.
I agree. If you look at the teaser, when Bane emerges from the bottom of the camera, he looks absolutely massive. Nolan knows exactly what he's doing and Tom has one hell of a performance up his sleeve. The voice he has conjured up just proves this point even more.
I agree, bane is going to be awesome :)
this bane seems more interesting....i like it better....FYI wbrothers said that they were doing a different take on bane... im glad this bane isnt hulkish and alot more active with humans
When I first heard the voice, I thought Gordon had escaped from the hospital with his oxygen mask. That being said, I don't have a problem with the voice. Bane still looks badass. I think people expected maybe a low growly voice? I wasn't sold on Ledger's Joker voice when I first heard it, and look how that turned out.
Ok. If you are Nolan, about to shoot what looks like a very important scene, in an uncontrolled set, where you can bet everything will leak out in a matter of minutes, wouldn't you try and control it yourself? Would it be too far fetched to think maybe he asked Hardey to trow in a funny voice for the couple of cell phones that were surely recording. Personally, I dont mind the voice, its different. I trust Nolan enough to know that Im gonna love this movie however he chooses to do it, but my guess is, regarding Bane's voice as well as many other things, we are in for a surprise.
I seriously doubt it. There is no way Christopher Nolan could meticuously control an environment that large. Not mention the waste of time it would be to have the actor play out a completely different voice just for the sake of dissuading his audience. Having the voice leaked is a small price to pay when considering the other steps he took in order to preserve confidentially of details in this shoot. This voice is very well trained and calculated; it's not just something that is spilled out. It has an iconography about it almost as prevelant as the Joker's so not only am I fan of it but I'm also impressed about how important Christpoher Nolan has made the voice work for all his characters (Batman, Scarecrow, Joker, and now Bane). Love it or hate it, that's the voice in the film. My money is that the sound department is gonna add a little more to his voice though.. Knowing Nolan, that contraption over his mouth isn't imply cosmetic. Finally I should add I'm a big fan of the voice. It's a complete surprise and is a character of its own that I keep listening to in order to better understand it.
I think that bane's voice is suprisingly cool. When everybody expected to hear a hulkish and monstrous bane (maybe like the bane of batman and robin, loooool) Chris Nolan and Tom Hardy gave us a much more interesting character with unique charateristics. We cannot forget that this is a reallystic bane and not a comicbook bane. And to all of the people who doubt Bane believe in Christopher Nolan, he deserves it.
I can't wait til filming wraps in Pittsburgh and heads back to LA then there will be no more of these leaks. Anyone think WB will come back to Pittsburgh for when decide to shoot another grand scale movie or superhero flick they want to keep secret?
...i've never been to this site before but am interested in all the 'hype' about tdkr since i was an extra during the filming on sunday...i've had the chance to be an extra in several movies filmed in pittsburgh over the past few years (the haunting hour: don't think about it; the kill point; warrior; she's out of my league; steel town) and the best part of sunday, for me, was the chance to see the 'out of the ballpark' professionalism of this production team...absolutely brilliant.
...on sunday, i left my cell phone in the car as we were instructed. when i got to the set, i signed the required confidentiality agreement stating that no pics nor anything that happened on set could be shared or discussed with anyone.
...there is mention of folks hanging in trees with cell phones...or people on the street watching filming..news choppers flying overhead....and there is nothing about that can be done about those situations...and..none of them have signed confidentiality documents.
...but much of what has been posted here, and on other sites, has been from extras on the set who violated that agreement.
...and in the posts about spoilers... whether things should be leaked...if that is right or wrong, the only undisputable fact that i see is that when you post pics or info that have come from people who have violated a confidentiality agreement, then you have a business/site whose success is based on the dishonesty of others..are you honestly ok with that?
I WAS THERE!!!!!!!!
My first theory after hearing banes voice is that his character is a young Englishman when he possibly works with a young rahs. Since the Lazarus pits are apart of the mix, potentially, perhaps bane exposes himself to the pit and now he's immortal. This is why he sounds like an aging Englishman now. The mask may be his only way of staying alive. Perhaps even involving the blue flower chemical within his gas mask. This is all an opinion.
You know... The guy that wore the darth vader suit did all of his lines.. And didn't realize that James Earl jones was going to be the final voice... Just saying... That's not his final voice
Hardy's voice sounds awesome. So creepy.
