Tom Felton to star in Planet of the Apes prequel, Rise of the Apes
 

In addition to Daniel Radcliffe's recent new role, his Harry Potter costar Tom Felton is set to star in the Planet of the Apes prequel, Rise of the Apes. One of the reps at Twentieth Century Fox just updated their official Twitter with the following:

A summary of Rise of the Apes is as follows:

The film is set to be released June 24, 2011.

Cool, now will be be a main character or only be in the film for less than five minutes?

ooo sounds cool:)

Ou,okey..nice..

Wow. I've never seen the original POTA, or the newest one, but this gives me reason to.

That's going to be a treat!

Gosh, I've never seen Planet of the Apes before. Must watch right now! *runs to nearest Blockbuster*

that sounds awesome! Good for Tom!

A man of many genres this Tom. =)

Aww. This is getting better by the minute. Tom's been busy with films!

OH that sounds great.

I really respect Tom Felton. He's doing a good job of putting himself out there and being in lots of different films. None besides HP have really been huge (at least in the U.S.), but he definitely has his name out there. I think he could go on to be very successful in the business.

Sweet!

Nice! :)

Ooh exciting!

He's doing so much right now.And all the other HP actors too.Good for them.:D

I'm excited to see how this and his other non-HP related works turn out.

weird ...wonder how long he will be onscreen?

I can't believe that they're bringing back the Planet of the Ape via prequel. Oh man.

Oh no, Tom, no, no, no, no, NO! :no::no::no::no: If any movie did NOT warrant a seque/prequel/anyquel, it's that overbudgeted, overhyped pile of steaming pet poop. Only good thing about that film was the fact that Tim Roth turned down the role of Snape to star in it, and we got Alan as the bonus prize!

Cool :)

sounds good :) tom's got quite a few films coming up
