  • In an Entertainment Weekly interview, director Christopher Nolan confirmed that he plans for The Dark Knight Rises to be his last Batman film and discussed an Inception-based video game that’s being developed. ‘I must say that I’m glad — I’m very, very glad — to be embarking on the last chapter of our Batman saga without any sense of obligation or duty to the studio,’ Nolan told Entertainment Weekly. ‘They did very well with Inception. So I’m able to go into finishing our story in a very enthusiastic way.’

  • Deadline.com is reporting that Frank Darabont, the director, executive producer, and writer of AMC’s The Walking Dead has fired the show’s entire writing staff and, rather than filling the staff positions, is considering using all freelance writers for the second season. Darabont wrote two of the first season’s six episodes and co-wrote/re-wrote the other four. Executive producer Robert Kirkman and freelance writer Glen Mazzara wrote two episodes as well.

  • Over at the Los Angeles Times’ Hero Complex blog, Star Trek writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci provide Complex’s Geoff Boucher with an interview in which they discuss the upcoming sequel (scheduled for 2012) to director J.J. Abrams’ blockbuster.
