NEW YORK, May 25 (UPI) -- Warner Bros. announced Tuesday it will offer the public its first look at the new "Batmobile" on June 8 in New York City.
The company's consumer products division said the Dark Knight's wheels -- featured in the upcoming movie "Batman Begins" -- will be displayed at the Licensing 2004 International at the Jacob Javits Convention Center.
Christopher Nolan ("Memento") is directing "Batsman Begins" from a screenplay by David Goyer ("Blade," "Blade 2"). The film is set for a Summer 2005 debut.
Starring Christian Bale ("American Psycho") as the Caped Crusader and Oscar-winner Michael Caine as his loyal servant, Alfred, "Batman Begins" is described as an examination of the origin of the Batman legend -- as Bruce Wayne searches the world for a way to fight injustice after his parents are murdered.
