There was a lot of dismay from Planet of the Apes fans last December when it was announced that Disney, soon after getting hold of the property from Fox, were fast-tracking a relaunch of the franchise. Given the enormous success of the recent prequel trilogy, there wasn’t much interest in seeing it rebooted this quickly. The latest word on the production says that it won’t be a total reset, though, and more like the next stage of the same story. And this news comes our way via the director himself, Wes Ball.
In an interview with Discussing Film, Ball didn’t go into details about what he’s got planned, but did tease that his movie would be set in the same universe as the Rise/Dawn/War trilogy and that fans of those films can rest assured that they’ll enjoy his effort.
“We have a take.
