Batman’s bike from The Dark Knight could auction for £900,000
A motorcycle used in Sir Christopher Nolan’s Oscar-winning 2008 Batman film The Dark Knight is expected to sell for up to £900,000 at auction.
The vehicle is among lots being sold by Hertfordshire-based Propstore online and at Bafta in London from 4 -6 December.
The “Batpod” was featured in a chase scene that included Christian Bale’s Batman and Heath Ledger’s Joker and it also appeared in the 2012 sequel The Dark Knight Rises.
The prop is predicted to sell for between £450,000 and £900,000.
The Dark Knight was filmed on location in Chicago and Hong Kong, while large indoor sets were built at the airship hangars in Cardington, Bedfordshire.
Bale’s complete Batsuit from Batman Begins, the first film in the trilogy, is also for sale, with an estimate of between £125,000 and £250,000.
