An incredible fan video has surfaced of Christopher Nolan’s 2012 blockbuster The Dark Knight Rises being filmed at the Pittsburgh Steelers’ home venue, Heinz Field, now Acrisure Stadium.

The final film of Nolan’s Batman trilogy was shot in various locations, including Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In one of the movie’s most memorable scenes, Bane (the main antagonist played by Tom Hardy) sets off bombs across Heinz Field moments after kickoff in the Gotham Rogues’ football game.

Multiple Pittsburgh Steelers players, including Ben Roethlisberger, Troy Polamalu, Heath Miller, Ryan Clark, and Mike Wallace, also made cameo appearances.

X/Twitter user @matthewluciow92 posted a video of the iconic football scene from The Dark Knight Rises. A hat tip to the fans in attendance who delivered an authentic Pittsburgh Steelers-like football atmosphere:


The film starred Christian Bale (reprising his role as Batman/Bruce Wayne), Hardy, Anne Hathaway (Catwoman/Selina Kyle), Michael Caine (Alfred Pennyworth), Morgan Freeman (Lucius Fox), Marion Cotillard (Miranda Tate/ Talia al Ghul) and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (John Blake).

 

Other filming locations for Nolan’s epic superhero film included London, Los Angeles, New York City, Jodhpur, and Glasgow. More than a decade after its release, The Dark Knight Rises remains one of the most critically acclaimed superhero movies of all time, grossing over $1 billion at the global box office.

It’s also the only Batman movie to date to feature many players from a real-life NFL team. Congrats to the 2011 Pittsburgh Steelers on making history.

LSU Tigers star Angel Resse has been making a lot of headlines after her match against the Iowa Hawkeyes. Reese has a unique fashion for her matches, she wears leggings on only one of her legs and she recently revealed the secret of doing so.

Reese lost her recent game against the Iowa Hawkeyes which left the fans wondering if she would continue with LSU or declare for the WNBA draft. Those questions have also been answered by Reese in her recent collaboration with Vogue.

Why does Angel Reese wear one legging attire?

Angel Reese wears only one legging as a part of her one-court attire and the fans have grown curious about it. Many people speculated that it was part of a superstition that Reese followed, however, that is not the case. The LSU star has herself revealed the reason for the unique dressing choice and it may surprise a lot of people.

I had surgery two years back on my shin. I have a rod in my leg… I cover the scar on one, and then the two players that I admire, Te’a Cooper and A’ja Wilson, also wear it, too. So it is swag. But I have used it to cover my scar,” said Angel Reese. She revealed that she had surgery on her leg and had a scar on it. She wears the leggings to hide that scar and at the same time as a swag fashion accessory.

Angel Reese declares for WNBA draft with Vogue photoshoot

Reese has answered those questions with a beautiful photoshoot in collaboration with Vogue. Reese did a photo shoot with the brand and announced that she would be declaring for the WNBA draft.

Reese expressed her thoughts about the decision on her official X (formerly Twitter) account. “Making my announcement with VOGUE was ICONIC. In the new world that I am stepping into, just believe in me, trust in me, and give me time to learn and grow!” said Reese in the post.
