Here’s the first trailer for the sequel to the Planet of Apes reborquel, the surprisingly good Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes. There’s reason enough to believe that the prequel-sequel may live up to its reboot predecessor, if only because Matt Reeves is in the director’s chair on Dawn of the Planet of the Rise of The Ape Falls, although there’s also reason for caution: Mark Bomback (Live Free or Die Hard, Race to Witch Mountain, the forthcoming Fifty Shades of Grey) penned the screenplay.

It appears to pick up some time after the events of the re-prequel, and Caesar is still running the show. James Franco will not return to the re-pre-boot, but it does have Keri Russell and Jason Clarke, along with Judy Greet and Gary Oldman, which is great collection of talent for one-third of the price for a marquee star.
