The Dark Knight Rises Theatrical Trailer. Eight years after Harvey Dent’s death, the Dent Act grants the Gotham City Police Department powers which nearly eradicate organized crime. Feeling guilty for covering up Dent’s crimes, James Gordon writes a resignation confessing the truth, but decides not to use it. Batman has disappeared; Bruce Wayne has become a recluse. Cat burglar Selina Kyle obtains Bruce’s fingerprints from his home, kidnaps a congressman, then disappears.
Selina hands Bruce’s fingerprints to Phillip Stryver, an assistant to Bruce’s business rival John Daggett, in hope of having her criminal record erased. Stryver double-crosses Selina, but she uses the congressman’s stolen phone to alert the police to their location. Gordon and the police arrive to find the congressman, then pursue Stryver’s men into the sewers while Selina flees. A masked man called Bane captures Gordon. Gordon escapes and is found by John Blake, a once-orphaned patrol officer who has deduced Batman’s true identity from their similar backgrounds. Gordon promotes Blake to detective, with Blake reporting directly to him.
