The Art and Making of The Dark Knight Trilogy

Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy started with Batman Begins, which explored Batman’s origins. The Dark Knight raised the stakes, pitting Batman against the Joker. Then The Dark Knight Rises completed the arc.

The Art and Making of The Dark Knight Trilogy tells the complete behind-the-scenes story of all three films. It is based on in-depth interviews with Nolan and all of the films’ key cast and crew and explores the creative process behind the epic Dark Knight Trilogy, with amazing art and never-before-seen photography. These movies changed the way that superhero films were made.
