Liam Neeson lied to us. He lied right through his teeth to every Batman fanboy on the internet. Today we learn that not only is the guy returning for Nolan’s 3rd Batman, but the guy is reportedly already on set and filming scenes. Yeah, I know!

Christopher Nolan is bringing his Batman trilogy full circle, as “Batman Begins” star Liam Neeson has joined the cast of Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ sequel “The Dark Knight Rises.”
Warner Bros. had no comment on the casting, but sources tell Variety that Neeson will be reprising the villainous role of Ra’s al Ghul and has already filmed a scene in London.
This is great news, but man I hate being lied to like that! I mean on one hand I think Neeson brings a very welcome presence to a fairly crowded ‘Dark Knight Rises’ landscape, but dude lied! I mean, I’m sure he was under some type of gag order by Nolan and co. and I’m sure I’ll get over it pretty quickly, (probably by lunch time), so for what it’s worth let’s all rejoice that the Demon’s Head has returned.
