   Posted by: rodtrent   in Comic Books, DC, Movies and Television

bale_batman_tn Fans at New York Comic Con previewed a new trailer for The Dark Knight, Christopher Nolan’s latest chapter in the Batman saga, which featured a new look at Harvey "Two-Face" Dent (Aaron Eckhart) and the Joker (the late Heath Ledger) putting the moves on Rachel Dawes (Maggie Gyllenhaal, replacing Katie Holmes).

The new trailer, which clocked in at slightly more than two minutes, also featured Dawes facilitating the first meeting between Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) and Dent and the Joker addressing a gathering of Gotham’s criminal leaders. Toward the end, Dent gives Wayne an ominous warning: "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

Paul Levitz, DC Comics president, introduced the trailer as a surprise during a panel for The Incredible Hulk on April 19 and just before the surprise unveiling of a new Speed Racer trailer.
The trailer will hit theaters in a couple of weeks. The Dark Knight opens July 18.
