Here’s the trailer for Wes Ball’s “Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes” (05.24.23). It started with a simple “NO!” in 2014, but the apes now have a firmer grasp of the English language. ‘Kingdom,’ taking place a few generations after the last one, looks to be a continuation of the previous trilogy, which peaked with Matt Reeves’ 2017 blockbuster “War for the Planet of the Apes.” As with the previous trilogy, the CGI looks stunning. I just hope Ball was the right pick to helm this sequel, I did not like “The Maze Runner” at all.
Danny Boyle tells Vanity Fair that AI was used to animate old photographs—which means Margaret Thatcher and the Kray brothers—and to create mice running around the newsroom.
