The Dark Knight Rises Viral Campaign Begins

The viral campaign for "The Dark Knight Rises" has officially begun.

Warner Bros and Christopher Nolan begun the campaign on Wednesday with a fake CIA bulletin release announcing that a Russian Scientist named Leonid Pavel had gone missing and revealed a document that related to the missing scientist. Thursday brought another document to light about Dr. Pavel and the announcement of a website - OperationEarlyBird.com. That site had a countdown clock on it that ended this morning at 10am. Finally, this morning's information was a map with different US cities pin pointed on it. Each of these 35 cities are where you can see "The Dark Knight Rises" prologue on December 13, at 10pm.

"The Dark Knight Rises" will be released on July 20, 2012.
