"Planet Of The Apes" prequel "Caesar" starts production July 2010

Are you upset that they're remaking the third film specifically (cause it makes sense to me seeing as it's the earliest point in the timeline and what better place to start, than at the beginning?), or are you just upset at the idea of a remake/reboot in general?

Or perhaps that they're actually remaking the fourth film in the series?
All of the above.

Except that, as Milo pointed out, the fourth film takes place first, chronologically, so it's not as wacky as it sounds.
Actually, Milo pointed out that the third film takes place first. The fourth one, however, seems to be the one they are remaking.


Perhaps, but CONQUEST is the movie that actually tells the story of how the Apes rose up in revolt, so it's more of an origin story than ESCAPE, which is essentially a quirky time-travel epilogue to the earlier movies.

So it makes sense to reboot CONQUEST.

Andy Serkis cast as Caeser

A few things have changed, with a new script by Amanda Silver and Rick Jaffa, but Caesar is still in the story with a primary role. And now he’ll be played by an actor with great simian experience: Andy Serkis.

Serkis’ role of Ceasar won’t be his first primate role, as Serkis played King Kong through performance capture for Jackson’s 2005 remake.
