Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes

Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes


Rise of the Apes is a completely new take on one of the Studio's most beloved and successful franchises. Oscar-winning visual effects house WETA Digital -- employing certain of the groundbreaking technologies developed for AVatar -- will render, for the first time ever in the film series, photo-realistic apes rather than costumed actors.

Rise of the Apes is an origin story in the truest sense of the term.

Set in present day San Francisco, the film is a reality-based cautionary tale, a science fiction/science fact blend, where man's own experiments with genetic engineering lead to the development of intelligence in apes and the onset of a war for supremacy.

Starring: James Franco, John Lithgow, Freida Pinto, Andy Serkis, Brian Cox, Tom Felton, David Oyelowo

Rise of the Apes is released 12th August
