The former Batman actor will make a guest appearance in the Christopher Nolan film, according to sources for Movie Web.
"Hollywood bigwigs confirmed actor Adam West will make a cameo on The Dark Knight Rises," the report stated.
West's potential role in the movie was not revealed, although the actor once expressed an interest in playing Batman's father, despite the character being killed off in a flashback in Batman Begins.
"I like Christian Bale. I've heard he's a big fan of mine, but I certainly reciprocate," he told Den of Geek back in 2008. "I think he's really very good. I'd love to play his father. The older Batman comes out of the woodwork, when times get really tough… maybe a few tips here and there."
West provided the voice of Thomas Wayne in an episode of the animated show Batman: The Brave And The Bold. Former Catwoman actress Julie Newmar voiced his wife Martha.
The Dark Knight Rises arrives in theatres on July 20, 2012.
