Courtesy of Just Jared (by way of Badass Digest), what looks to be the first-ever full-on shots of Bane have surfaced. Whilst shooting The Dark Knight Rises in Pittsburgh, someone snagged these photos of Tom Hardy as Bane, and he looks hot in that wool coat. That Nolan is a taskmaster! Also included is a pic of Batman’s camo tumbler, which Hardy is standing on. Ghost-riding the whip? Ok, I didn’t think so. And I’ll never say that again. I really like this look, which gives off a real post-apocalyptic vibe to me. Click the pics to get a better look!

Yeah, it’s supposed to be winter in the scenes they’re shooting in Pittsburgh. I get to be GCPD in a couple of weeks, and that gear was hot when I DIDN’T have to stand out in hundred degree weather. Oh, it will so be worth it though…
Dayum! Is Bale going to have to wear that rubber suit in this summer’s heat? By the time he’s done, he’ll be ready for The Machinist Part 2.
Anyone else getting a Blade Runner vibe from that costume? I dig it. But I still think Tom Hardy is waaaay too short for Bane. They need to do some forced perspective shit to make him look taller. He looks cute in those photos like a lil’ action figure.
Would have been ideal to have a towering big guy, but I’m so glad they got a real actor and not some mute wrestler or some austrian bodybuilder.
I love how everyone is assuming the jacket is part of his “official” costume. Reports have said this takes place in winter. I’m sure Bane realizes that wearing a sleeveless flak jacket isn’t the best street roaming outfit for Gotham in December.
