Widely reported this morning is a piece over at Batman fansite Batman on Film, which suggests that Christopher Nolan, the director of Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, may be reluctant to continue the series.

The alarmist article sites a shady “behind the camera” source, defensively pegged as “legit”, claiming that Nolan was sufficiently rocked by Heath Ledger’s death to not want to continue (The Joker was apparently slated to turn up in at least one more film), and that a threequel, even if it arrives via other hands, is unlikely until at least 2012.
