New Official Dark Knight Rises Synopsis

Warner Bros. has released a new official plot synopsis for The Dark Knight Rises via the movie's official site:

"Warner Bros. Pictures’ and Legendary Pictures’ The Dark Knight Rises is the epic conclusion to filmmaker Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy.  It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon both hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act.  But everything will change with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. Far more dangerous, however, is the emergence of Bane, a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane."

Meanwhile, viral marketing materials from DEWGothamCity (via Comic Book Resources) show the GCPD's review of Officer John Blake, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt:

The Dark Knight Rises opens July 20.
