New Dark Knight Rises Set Video Has Batman And Bane Battling In A Brawl

In the comics, the Batman villain known as Bane is known to have a brilliant criminal mind and is a master strategist, but he also happens to be one huge, physical son-of-a-bitch. Absolutely layered with muscles that are enhanced by the drug known as Venom, he is one of the few supervillains who can tussle with the caped crusader mano-a-mano and have it be a fair fight. As a result we can probably expect a lot of fighting between the hero and villain in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises, and now a new video has surfaced online showing just that.

Discovered by The Sly Oyster, the video features Batman and Bane duking it out in the midst of a huge brawl. It would seem that the video was taken around the same day that some of the first set video and photos were taken, but this one has a much better look at the central protagonist and antagonist as they fight for the future of Gotham. The video begins with a bit of rehersal before chaos breaks out and everyone begins throwing punches.

Check out the video below.
