Disney Flushes Fox Film Development, ‘Redirects’ Strategy After Big Q3 Loss

James Cameron’s sequels to “Avatar” will proceed, as well as a continuation of the “Planet of the Apes” series (no new film in that series has been announced since the release of 2017’s “War for the Planet of the Apes”).

I feel conflicted as I really love the trilogy, but I would love to see more and the apes evolving closer to the original films.

I hope they'll have the feel of Matt Reeves' movies instead of making them more 'Marvel-like'.

I agree! I hope Disney tries to bring Reeves back!

It'd be fun to see Andy Serkis come full circle and direct the new installment.

I would also be up for that!

Reeves told the story he wanted to tell. And he threw out the big time jump that was originally planned for the second film so that he could focus on Caesar and the early days of the apes. Grounding his films in a more real world. Frankly I think he squandered a lot of the potential in film 3. I'd rather the series have a new director that is willing to embrace the scifi and strangeness of the Planet of the Apes 1000+ years after the apes have risen up and conquer the world. When theyve got a fully thriving civilization with their own unique technology, government, culture etc. That doesnt really seem like the sort of thing that would be in Reeves wheelhouse.

And just maintain the mocap, we don't need to go back to the makeup and prosthetics well again.

This recent trilogy is one of my favorite trilogies of all time. Caesar had a fascinating arc. Never seen the originals, but I hope they can find a way to have. a lead as engaging as Caesar.

Age of the Planet of the Apes

Age of the Planet of the Apes

That will be a short movie since they can determine the age via radiometric dating.

I'm sure Disney can find a way to stretch it to 2 hours.

The next should definitely take place during the 1968 film’s timeline. On an epic scale. Maybe go back to the book, and have the Apes evolved to cities like we have today. Andy Serkis can even play a descendant of Caesar.

YES!!!!!

Disney should just do a remake of 68' Apes. 'Rise' even showed the Icarus ship going into space.

Keanu could be Taylor.

That would be interesting if they remade it. I'm thinking they'll just get much closer before the events of that, though.

Maybe reimagine it with a woman astronaut instead.

Carrie Anne Moss then.

Carrie Anne Moss then.

She would be as dull as getting Denise Crosby.

Great news, the Serkis trilogy just got better and better as it went on for me, with War IMO being one of the best and most emotionally charged blockbuster of the last few years.

I hope the new movies keep the tone of the preceding one also, despite Disney now being involved.

Agree with all of this!!!

Only one winner here.
