Of course, the Dark Knight is a superhero who doesn&#8217;t just get stuck in this genre. Batman&#8217;s fame went beyond comics and became involved in every branch of art.

It is also said that this movie of the trilogy is not very popular because of Val Kilmer.<\/p>\n<p>But according to Bob Kane, creator of The Dark Knight, Val Kilmer was the best Batman he&#8217;d ever seen. The studio, the director, and the fans didn&#8217;t think so. Still, Batman Forever managed to outstrip Michael Keaton&#8217;s Batman Returns at the box office.

The main villain will be <strong>Riddler<\/strong> in the movie, but besides Riddler, we will also be able to see other villains such as <strong>Penguin<\/strong> and <strong>Court of Owls<\/strong> .
