If you weren’t among the many who shoved money into Warner Bros.’ pockets this weekend at a showing of HARRY POTTER, you probably missed the teaser trailer for Christopher Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. Fret no more, however: the trailer landed in our backyard and we’re happy to share it with you. Just click on that little box below and enjoy.

There isn’t much to see yet, but that’s to be expected. A chunk of it is footage from the previous films, but then we’re given over to what looks to be a severely harmed Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman) telling Bruce Wayne/Batman that Gotham needs its Bat back. Dramatic stuff, even more so when you get a glimpse of Batman on the ropes against the brutal Bane (Tom Hardy).

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES stars Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, Tom Hardy, Marion Cotillard, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman and Morgan Freeman. It hits theaters on JULY 20, 2012.
