Okay, this trailer finally did the job. I’m finally really intrigued by Rise of the Planet of the Apes, the prequel to the Planet of the Apes franchise starring James Franco, John Lithgow, Tom Felton, and Freida Pinto. This new trailer provides a much more in-depth look at the story, and we see much more of the apes in action.

The Plot:

Rise of the Planet 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.

Watch the trailer:
