Rise of the Apes, a pre-quel to Planet of the Apes, is set to hit theaters on November 23rd with James Franco, John Lithgow, Frieda Pinto and Andy Serkis.
The new take on the beloved story will use Weta Digital's effects house--- which will create for the first time ever in a motion picture--- photo realistic apes in place of costumed actors.
Cant wait to see what that looks like -- but in the meantime we have this photo of James Franco that has just been released by the studio.
Franco, who plays scientist Will Rodman, looks to be in a lab, hard at work and talking to someone with a rather large headpiece.
Behind him, You can see some X-rays of what look like Skulls.
Looks cool! I don't know about you , but I'm dying to see how those apes turn out!
What are you guys most excited to see when Rise of the Apes hits theaters in November? And how do you feel about this first official photo?
