7. War For The Planet Of The Apes

Wonder Woman Trailer
20th Century Fox

Release date: 14th July

Who would have thought we’d get two genuinely good films about chimps riding horses? Both Rise and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes managed to draw detailed post-apocalyptic worlds infused with interesting characters, and while they might not match the Charlton Heston original in terms of sheer shock-and-awe value, they’re consistently punchy, thought-provoking blockbusters.

Andy Serkis returns as revolutionary primate Caesar, who leads the apes in an all-out war against humankind. Judy Greer, Terry Notary and Karin Konoval will also reprise their roles from Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, while Woody Harrelson joins the cast as ‘The Colonel’, leader of humanity’s anti-ape military operations.
