The actor has confirmed he will return as Bruce Wayne and his superhero alter-ego Batman for the third time in director Christopher Nolan's forthcoming film, but a production schedule had yet to be released, reports imdb.com.

However, Bale's co-star Gary Oldman, who portrays Commissioner Gordon in the movie adaptations, broke the news of the return of the Caped Crusader to fans at the annual Comic-Con in San Diego, California Friday.

"The next Batman is shooting next year. It's at least two years away. But you didn't hear it from me," he said.
