Update: Pee-wee Herman Narrates ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Trailer
‘The Dark Knight Rises‘ hits theaters July 20th. This means we are now solidly into the “bat days” of summer. Jimmy Fallon played his part in hyping the much-anticipated movie with a sketch in which Paul Reubens uses his Pee-wee Herman voice to overdub all the voices in a ‘Dark Knight Rises’ trailer. Check out the simple but effective edit below.
UPDATE: The voice in this trailer is NOT, in fact, Pee-Wee Herman/Paul Reubens. It's Jimmy Fallon, doing his impersonation of Pee-Wee!
It's mentioned in this interview, near the end of the segment, about 1:22 in.
It was a comedy bit done on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. Watch it again and see if you can tell the difference.
Reubens has a previous history with Batman — he played the Penguin’s father in 1992′s ‘Batman Returns,’ and voiced the role of Bat-Mite in the animated TV series ‘Batman: The Brave and the Bold.’
