Batman is back and is once again standing face to face with the enemies of Gotham City. The third and last of the franchise directed by Christopher Nolan, The Dark Knight Rises promises a lot more action.
Since it hit North American theaters on July 20, The Dark Knight Rises has raked in $834.4 million, which makes it the 30th most lucrative
production of all time. It has grossed $445.3 outside of North America and $390.1 million in the US and Canada combined.
The Dark Knight Rises is living up to its name by soaring towards the success enjoyed by its predecessor The Dark Knight (2008). The previous film of the trilogy boasts global box-office earnings of a billion dollars, which puts it among the dozen most lucrative productions of all time.
