'Planet of the Apes' Has Just Begun
Christmas is coming early, FEARnetians! Remember when you first left the theater after seeing Tim Burton’s Planet of the Apes remake some seven years ago? Well, if you’re anything like me, after you were done throwing up, you probably wondered when you could see the sequel. The answer to said question is, unfortunately, quite soon. According to CHUD the film will actually be a prequel (or a prequel-remake) and instead of taking up the name of its predecessor, Conquest of the Apes, the film will just go by Caesar (the name of the ape who leads the uprising against the humans). Caesar was previously announced to be called Genesis of the Apes or Planet of the Apes: Genesis, but according to one news source, the project has already shifted to the alias of Caesar for good, and will be written and directed by Scott Frank. It will also "eschew the time travel aspect of the original series and will present Caesar as a chimpanzee whose intellect has been stimulated by genetic experimentation." Look for the new Planet of the Apes installment in 2010.
