The Planet of the Apes franchise gets the origin treatment in this 20th Century Fox production from director Rupert Wyatt. The script, written by Amanda Silver and Rick Jaffa, concerns a group of American scientists whose genetic experiments lead to an uprising by a race of intelligent apes that they helped create. James Franco stars, with Freida Pinto and John Lithgow heading up the rest of the cast.
