Trailer Watch: War for the Planet of the Apes

The third chapter in 20th Century Fox's rebooted Planet of the Apes series finds humanity and the apes engaging in their final battle against a wintery setting, and it sure does look heavier on the action and dramatics than the last two films. Director Matt Reeves of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes returns which from this bit of footage is a great thing, as it already looks like one of 2017's best blockbusters.

In War for the Planet of the Apes, the third chapter of the critically acclaimed blockbuster franchise, Caesar and his apes are forced into a deadly conflict with an army of humans led by a ruthless Colonel. After the apes suffer unimaginable losses, Caesar wrestles with his darker instincts and begins his own mythic quest to avenge his kind.

War for the Planet of the Apes stars Andy Serkis, Woody Harrelson, Steve Zahn, Judy Greer, Karin Konoval, Terry Notary, Max Lloyd-Jones, Aleks Paunovic, Sara Canning, and Gabriel Chavarria, and will be released on July 14th, 2017.
