Tom Felton talks villainous role in Caesar: Rise of the Apes
 
Tom Felton recently spoke to the LA Times about his work in the upcoming drama Caesar: Rise of the Apes, in which he plays the villainous Dodge, an employee of the apes facility who treats the animals terribly, and suffers as a result.

Quote:

“It’s one of my favorite scripts of any I’ve read,” Felton said. “It’s a brilliant script. It’s a prequel to the classic, ‘Planet of the Apes,’ so it explains how the apes came to power and it’s a fantastic story, really.”
Quote:

“I have to be careful here because they haven’t given me a clearance to divulge the entire plot — as much as I’d like to. I can tell you it’s a great story. I’m amazed, really, that they didn’t do [the original films] in this order and start with this modern-day story. It seems logical to start with this story and then go forward from there. But here we are; they’ve come back and done this interesting story.

"It essentially follows one particular ape. The story follows this one ape as he ends up in a primate facility, a facility where my character works. Needless to say, I’m not that keen on the monkeys at my facility. I’m not the most pleasant person they’ve ever come across in their life. I show this one particular ape that there is a dark side to humans, and I’m not very nice. And that leads to a backlash …”
A synopsis of the film has been released, as well, and can be read below.

Quote:

That ape is Caesar, and (James) Franco plays the empathetic scientist who takes the ape home to spare him from the cruelties of Felton’s character. Caesar is one of the test subjects in a research program aimed at finding treatments for Alzheimer’s disease, but the work has an unexpected effect on him.
Caesar: Rise of the Apes is set for a June 24, 2011 release.

This movie looks rushed. I really hope it is good. :(

This movie kind of sounds interesting. Tom has picked so any different types of movies to act in after HP. :yes:

SlytherinX_Green 01-13-2011 12:53 AM

Well...there's the proof you need to be nice to Apes! They'll rip your face off.

Eek!

Butterbeer7 01-13-2011 01:52 AM

it kinda sounds like a good movie. I hope it does well!

Enrico_Dc 01-13-2011 03:14 AM

is that a sequel to the Planet of the Apes movie on which Helena Bonham-Carter also starred?

Lady of Light 01-13-2011 06:30 AM

I think this movie sounds interesting. Hope it turns out to be good!

HogwartsHokage 01-13-2011 06:50 AM

Hey, it's released 5 days before my b-day! Cool! Hopefully I'll get to see Tom in this around then... :D

nogoodforyou 01-13-2011 06:52 AM

another baddie roles, this time he is mean to animals. i wonder if we will see the draco sneer on his face when he is cruel to the apes?

R-Luchy~W*7*PG~ 01-13-2011 02:46 PM

Nice..

JackW092 01-13-2011 04:24 PM

This movie sounds great! :pea:

brislunatica 01-13-2011 09:07 PM

yay :woot: I loves Planet of the Apens so I can´t wait to see this movie ^_^

harrypotter#1fan 01-13-2011 09:08 PM

Sounds alright....

princess of*hp* 01-13-2011 11:28 PM

Aw, Tom always has to play the bad guy. I wish they would let him branch out a bit in a high profile role, not like in 13 Hours or something low key like that. [:/]

James Franco! How I adore him. Hell, I adore them both. I've never seen the original POTAs, so I hope to watch them before I get to see this!

Oh... this reminds me. I do sincerely wonder what role Freida Pinto will be playing. :hmm: Should be quite interesting to watch.

I want Tom to explore more character types than just the villain. He has some angelic features and I think he'd portray the more down to earTh characters well :)

iamsirius 01-14-2011 02:05 AM

This looks really interesting... but I haven't seen Planet of the Apes though so I don't know if this would make sense.

felixkeep 01-14-2011 08:50 AM

another villain to his acting list? aw.

but the movie does look interesting.

ps: is it a typo error in the first sentence "upcoming drama"? :)

BearyMay 01-14-2011 10:16 AM

That's cool! I can't wait to see it! :)

phoenix_tears 01-14-2011 02:31 PM

Haha, I love how Tom always plays the bad guy :lol: But don't we all just adore bad guys? :shifty:

Prof. McGonagall 01-15-2011 03:17 AM

I never much like the Planet of the Apes series from back in the day but I'll see this movie b/c Tom is in it...

~*Snape'sGirl*~ 01-15-2011 06:13 PM

Sounds really good. I'm glad they're going back and doing a prequel. We always saw what happened AFTER the incident. Now we finally get the whole story. YAY!! Can't wait to see Tom. ^_^
