According to Variety Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight, which has been shooting for much of the summer in Chicago, will head to Hong Kong for nine days of shooting in November.  Also Beatrice Rosen (Peaceful Warrior) and Joshua Harto (The Believer) have joined the cast of the sequel to Batman Begins.

Batman's sojurn in Hong Kong will mark the first time that the Caped Crusader has left Gotham City in the history of the film franchise (Bruce Wayne's training in Tibet doesn't count).  No word yet on the roles that Rosen and Harto will play or on how the Hong Kong setting will figure in the plotline of the new film, which Nolan and Warner Bros. are keeping under wraps.
