‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ – The Concept Art for the Movie

If you’ve seen the ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’ then you will remember how the movie ended. The sequel which is released worldwide this month is set 10 years after the end of the first film.

The world is now in ruins and mankind has been nearly been wiped out thanks to the Simian Flu, and although the human survivors and apes have reached a perturbed truce the tensions are at an all-time high.

The apes led by the genetically modified Caesar have now grown into a fully fledged nation and just want to live in peace. The humans on the other hand want to try to rebuild the old world and the friction starts and the battle to determine who is Earth’s most dominant species is about to kick off.
