Woody Harrelson Cast as the Villain for WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES
Woody Harrelson has nabbed one of the leading human roles in Fox's latest Planet of the Apes installment. Matt Reeves, who directed 2014's Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, has returned as helmer for the new project, which is titled War for the Planet of the Apes. Mark Bomback also is back as screenwriter and Chernin Entertainment as the producer. Dylan Clark is also producing.
It is unclear who is returning to the new movie, which will continue the story of Caesar, the evolved ape who is brought to life via motion capture by Andy Serkis. Plot details are being kept secret, but Harrelson will play a character called the Colonel. It was recently reported that Gabriel Chavarria would play one of the new characters, but insiders say his part is small.
Harrelson is currently shooting LBJ, starring as President Lyndon B. Johnson, and will be back on the big screen in the final Hunger Games movie, which hits theaters on Nov. 20. The actor is undergoing a resurgence thanks to the critical acclaim for his work on the first season of HBO's True Detective.

Nah, 5 times really would definitely border bestiality, if it's not crossed it yet.

Agreed. I didn't really enjoy the first one to much cause the story took to long to get going but this one was much better.

Aleks Paunovic Joins WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES Cast
Aleks Paunovic is set to help swell the ranks of Caesar's army, joining 20th Century Fox's War For The Planet of The Apes as a new ape character to be revealed at a later date. The film picks up after the events of last year's Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes, which saw all hope for peace between mankind and apekind dashed after a false flag-incited war.
Plot details for the next pic are scant, but it's assumed the film will see ape leader Caesar become the revered Moses-like figure from the original Planet Of The Apes series of the 1960s and '70s. Matt Reeves is directing from a script co-written with Mark Bomback.
Paunovic next will be seen in the indie Numb, which he stars in and produces. Paunovic had a recurring role during final season of Syfy's Continuum, and on the first season of iZombie and second season of The 100, both for the CW.
