Nolan Confirms He Is Directing Batman 3

Christopher Nolan sat down with Empire Magazine and finally confirmed what was expected ending the months of speculation:

"I don’t know if it’s announced or if it’s not announced," said Nolan. "It’s becoming inevitable, I’ll put it that way. I feel myself falling into it, I guess. And getting it all figured out and I’m pretty excited about what we’re doing so… If I haven’t announced it, I think that people probably all know at this point that I’m doing it."
 
Hang on, that's not 100% clear: so we can safely assume you're directing?   

"I think you can at this point,   yes."
