While the voice is obviously not quite as over the top as Bane's, there are moments when the Bane vibe shines through. It's worth noting that Hardy toned it down for the final cut of Nemesis - or perhaps we should say he 'dumbed it down' - a film so unsuccessful (both critically and financially) that it gave way to J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot.

Are you glad that Christopher Nolan altered Bane's voice for the final cut of The Dark Knight Rises? Drop us a line in the comments.

The Dark Knight Rises is in theaters everywhere.
