I hope not, but I could see Warner letting him do it because technically, this is the end of the Nolan Bat films anyway. The next round of movies will undoubtedly be another reboot.
"It will make a lot more sense to people when they see the film," Nolan says of the time jump. "But it's not a great mystery -- it's the jumping-off point for the film -- but it's hard for me to articulate it. I think the mood at the beginning of the film will make a lot of sense. If I had to express it thematically, I think what we're saying is that for Batman and Commissioner Gordon, there's a big sacrifice, a big compromise, at the end of The Dark Knight and for that to mean something, that sacrifice has to work and Gotham has to get better in a sense. They have to achieve something for the ending of that film -- and the feeling at the end of that film -- to have validity. Their sacrifice has to have meaning and it takes time to establish that and to show that, and that's the primary reason we did that. It's a time period that is not so far ahead that we would have to do crazy makeup or anything -- which I think would be distracting -- but it gave them something to get their teeth into, particularly Christian in terms of portraying this guy who has been frozen in this moment in time with nowhere to go. He really has done an incredible job figuring out how to characterize that and express that."

WB even confirmed it'll be yet another reboot. Why they can't continue and just James-Bond it I don't know.

Idk either. How many fucking origin stories do we really need? I'm all for just continuing on.

All I can focus on is the dude in the bright yellow turban on the right.
