Man of Steel did not feature an after-credits scene, and now, producer Christopher Nolan…

THE DARK KNIGHT TRILOGY Director Christopher Nolan Recalls His Influence On The Superhero Genre And Whether He’d Return
Few directors have left a legacy on the comic book movie genre as much as Christopher Nolan has. The critically acclaimed writer-director’s The Dark Knight Trilogy is without a doubt one of the best superhero sagas to date, reestablishing Batman’s role in the mainstream.
