'''The Dark Knight Trilogy''' is a series of films directed by [[Christopher Nolan]] and based on the [[DC Comics]] character [[Batman]], released between June of 2005 and July of 2012. The first film of the series, ''Batman Begins'', served as a reboot of [[Warner Bros.]]' ''Batman'' film franchise following the disappointing response to 1998's ''Batman & Robin''. Unlike previous on-screen depictions of Batman, Nolan steered away from the fantasy comic book themes of the character and instead aimed for a more dark, realistic approach for his films.

''The Dark Knight Trilogy'' has been tremendously successful both with film critics and audience members. The second installment of the series, ''The Dark Knight'', became the fourth highest-grossing domestic film of all time (behind ''[[Titanic]]'', ''[[Avatar (film)|Avatar]]'', and ''[[The Avengers (film, 2012)|The Avengers]]''), and was nominated for a total of eight Academy Awards, of which it won two, including Best Supporting Actor for the late [[Heath Ledger]]'s portrayal of the arch-villain [[Joker (comics)|The Joker]].
