That looks very strong, no? Odds are that’s Andy Serkis as Caesar, the main ape in the film. Here’s the official plot description:

Also on the Facebook page, before the official trailer premiere, they say that on Wednesday they’ll premiere “an exclusive live look at Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Be the first to see footage from the film – including a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the apes!” We’ll keep our eye out.

Set in present-day San Francisco, RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES reveals the origins of a war that ultimately led to a global apocalypse – and to Earth becoming the Planet of the Apes. The Oscar-winning visual effects team that brought to life the worlds of Avatar and Lord of the Rings is taking on its most ambitious challenge, creating for the first time a non-human CGI character that delivers a dramatic performance with real emotion and intelligence.

Fans who have been looking forward to this film are going to get a whole bunch of information this week. What do you think of the clip?
