Our guess is that it will be used for Bane’s backstory.

According to IBT Times (Via SlashFilm who in turn heard it from Geek Tyrant), a recycling plant in Bedford, UK was approached by the production team for The Dark Knight Rises for scrap metal to be used in a Siberian prison camp.

Although the story didn’t feature a quote about how the man who ran the plant got the details, this may offer hints into what to expect from the plot as well as (possibly) Bane’s origin story.

It is possible that Bruce Wayne may encounter the camp at some point (some point to the below screenshot from the trailer as evidence) but since there has been no confirmation it may be best to treat these as rumors for the time being.

So what do you think? Is there enough evidence to suggest that Bruce Wayne will visit the prison camp or do you think we’ll mostly see it in scenes concerning Bane’s backstory?
