Across the sea, the last members of the previous and deposed ruling family, the Targaryens, are also scheming to regain the throne. The friction between the houses Stark, Lannister and Baratheon, and with the remaining great houses Greyjoy, Tully, Arryn, and Tyrell, leads to full-scale war.

The third and final film in the trilogy is The Dark Knight Rises. Batman's last stand against the corrupt and the evil shows him struggling to regain every ounce of power he once had to come out of retirement and face his deadliest foe yet: the seemingly unstoppable Bane - menacingly portrayed by Tom Hardy - who challenges Batman not only to his physical limit, but also pushes his mental skills to their absolute peak.
