It looks like we have Jonathan Nolan to thank for The Dark Knight, as he has revealed that he had to convince his brother, Christopher Nolan, to agree to direct the second Batman movie, telling him not to be "chicken sh*t" about it.
The Nolan brother explained during a recent interview on Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast that although the filmmaker's first Batman movie Batman Begins was such a huge success, he was hesitant to make another comic book over fears of being "pigeonholed".
