There's been widespread speculation about the home entertainment release of The Dark Knight Rises, but today we got official word that it will be on DVD and Blu-ray on December 4. The last film in The Dark Knight trilogy from director Christopher Nolan earned $443.1 million at the box office.

The film will be available on DVD at a suggested retail price of $28.99 and a Blu-ray combo pack for $35.99. As seen elsewhere there will be a very limited "broken cowl" packaging version of the combo pack. There will also be a Blu-ray triple feature collection containing all three films for $52.99.

As you would expect, the Blu-ray is packed with the requisite special features, but one thing ominously missing is the inclusion of any deleted scenes. Perhaps, the reason for their omission is the little burst on the home entertainment announcement sheet. It proclaims that an "Ultimate Collector's Edition" of The Dark Knight trilogy will be available in 2013.

I don't know about you, but I personally can't wait to see what's on that collection. For now, we've included the announce video below and all of the details of the Blu-ray and DVD straight from Warner Bros. Finally, we've also included the artwork for all of the skus.
