Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011): New Trailer Will Leave You Breathless!

Apes, apes, apes and more bloody apes! The gorilla of film studios 20th Century Fox just released a new trailer for Rise of the Planet of the Apes. With the film title renamed twice previously from Rise of the Apes, and Caesar: Rise of the Apes. The new trailer clearly shows the impressive CGI work by Peter Jackson’s digital visual effects studio Weta Digital (Avatar, District 9, The Lord of the Rings), and it looks just stunning. I literally had the same reaction when I first saw the trailer for Jurassic Park. The digital facial reproduction of Caesar’s face looks ravishing, and very intriguing at the end of the trailer.

Check out the trailer above in HD or browse through our picture gallery of Freida Pinto, who co-stars in this ape flick as Caroline.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes is slated to be released in theatres on August 5, 2011.
