Warner Bros., who produced The Dark Knight Rises, has been in contact with the Governor of Colorado’s office and will be making a large contribution to those affected by the Aurora shootings.
The studio will make a donation to the givingfirst.org fund, which was listed on Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper’s website. The general fund will give money to many charities which support victims of the shooting last Friday morning.
The studio did not disclose the amount it is donating, but stated it is a large sum. Warner Bros. is the first studio to make a charitable donation to the victims.
Additionally, Warner Bros. issued a statement and cancelled the Paris premiere in wake of the shootings.
Thanks to THR for the tip.
