‘Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes’ Sequel Gets A New Writer

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film will be “taking the story to the next level, with the apes on the path to emerge as society’s new rulers.” That seems all but obvious considering where Rise of the Planet of the Apes ended up.
Caesar, played in performance capture by Serkis, will likely be the star of this film once again. It’s not yet clear if James Franco will be back as his character could easily be written out of the story. I don’t see that happening as he’s a major movie star, but if they didn’t lock him up for a few pictures before the first movie, he might be free to walk away.
Do you think Burns is a good addition to the Rise of the Planet of the Apes sequel?
