Bane may have villain company in 'Dark Knight' - possible spoiler

Ho, ho, ho!

Bane? Check.

Catwoman? Check.

A mystery villain? Maybe.

We thought we knew the lineup for "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises." Then we poked around on the Internet a little more.

Are we going to spoil it for you? No. Well, yes, if you click "read more."

Talia al Ghul.

OK, technically a villainous, not a villain. She is the daughter of Ra’s al Ghul, portrayed by Liam Neeson in "Batman Begins." Josh Pence is scheduled to play Ra’s al Ghul in "Rises" in flashback scenes.

According to Screen Rant, actress Marion Cotillard will play the adult Talia al Ghul and that a child actress will play the young villainous in the flashback scenes. This speculation isn't exactly new, but Screen Rant does tie it together with some other so-called "evidence."

Maybe we need to get The World's Greatest Detective on this case. Oh, he's busy.
