Sir Michael Caine has revealed that Christopher Nolan's next Batman movie will begin production next year.

Caine, who plays Bruce Wayne's butler Alfred Pennyworth in the superhero series, told DS: "I think they're going to do it in April, that's about as much as I know."

Discussing his role in Nolan and Leonardo DiCaprio's upcoming sci-fi thriller Inception, he said: "In this I play Leonardo's father-in-law, but also the professor who teaches him about going into dreams, so I'm really quite clever!"

Inception opens in the UK on July 16, while the next Batman is due in cinemas on July 20, 2012.
