In additon to the release of the new War for the Planet of the Apes trailer, Fox Studios has released image stills featuring Caesar (played by Andy Serkis), Rocket (Terry Notary), Luca, and Woody Harrelson stars as the Colonel.
“Caesar, who has had a love for human beings, is now tested beyond measure,” Serkis told USA Today. “The losses of the apes on his side drive him to a really dark place. He doesn’t know anymore where his loyalties lie. He’s in a very deeply conflicted period of his life.”
Woody Harrelson's Colonel is described as "merciless" and who will go to great lengths "to create a world where things can be gentle again, but the journey he takes you on is chilling,” says director Matt Reeves.
"War For The Planet of the Apes" has a July 14, 2017 release directed by Matt Reeves starring Andy Serkis, Woody Harrelson, Steve Zahn, Terry Notary and Karin Konoval.
