“Rise of The Planet Of The Apes” is an up and coming sci–fi film that is based on the original “Planet of the Apes” movie. It was originally supposed to be released sometime this month but now it has officially been set for a release on the 5th of August, 2011.

Will Rodman, played by James Franco, is working on a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. His first test subject is “Caesar”, who begins to mutate rapidly. He is taken back home to the Doctor’s house to keep him away from the cruel lab doctors. Caesar’s human side seems to control him and contain him. He then breaks free from the doctor’s house and his cage and starts to spread the cure among other apes. This leads to a revolution between man and apes. Dr. Rodman may be the only person who can stop them before the ape revolution takes over the entire of humanity.

The film is not based on any specific plotline from the original series, but instead takes elements from the earlier movies to create an original origin story.

Director Rupert Wyatt on the reboot: “This is part of the mythology and it should be seen as that. It’s not a continuation of the other films; it’s an original story. It does satisfy the people who enjoy those films. The point of this film is to achieve that and to bring that fan base into this film exactly like Batman [Begins].”

Apart from James Franco, other big names that star in the movie are Andy Serkis as Caesar, John Lithgow and Freida Pinto. James Franco was casted in the lead since discussions with Tobey Maguire being in the lead broke down.
