Extra dies on set of new Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises
AN extra on the new Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises has died on set.
The male extra died from a heart attack during rehearsals.
It is not the first time tragedy has hit a Dark Knight film - actor Heath Ledger, who played arch villain The Joker - died in 2008 at the age of 28 after shooting the second film in the trilogy.
A spokesman for studio Warner Brothers said: "The studio can confirm that a male extra passed away while on a break during an off-set crowd rehearsal for a sequence with several hundred extras in early November.
"The production crew fully cooperated with the authorities' investigation, which established that he died of natural causes."
