Tom Felton Talks More About His Role In Rise Of The Apes!

It was fantastic. It was a month in Vancouver, which what a wonderful place that was to shoot. James Franco, I’m sure you know is the lead, who is a charming and highly intelligent man and made us all feel very stupid. And Andy Serkis, obviously plays Caesar, he was one of the most charming gentlemen I’ve ever met."

"Felton: Sorry, I can’t reveal too much, of course. It’s a fairly unpleasant role again, unfortunately. Well, I say “unfortunately,” more like “fortunately” really. The long and short of it is, I work at a primate facility which my dad owns and needless to say I don’t take care of our residents too well. I have a whole arsenal of weapons that I use at my taste. It was a delightful role and I really enjoyed it. It’s very, very different from Draco even if he is still not a pleasant character, in a very different way.

"Again, I’m not entirely sure how much I can say, but I can reveal, yes, they are using, as far as I know, motion capture technology and using it in a whole new light. As far as I know, again, the whole Avatar-style is to shoot it within the realms of green screen and so forth, whereas this is actually taking a physical man and putting him into the real world, if you will."

"Andy, I’m not sure if you’ve seen him in anything else, but he has a fantastic ability to re-create. Seeing Andy being this charming English gentleman that he is and literally flipping, and turning into an ape, it was really, really scary. To hear him make the noises he does. He literally moves, spot on, to what a chimp would. It’s incredible to watch that as well."
