During our visit to War for the Planet of the Apes set, Serkis revealed that Caesar will be more human-like than ever.
That was a very big challenge for me, personally, in this movie in terms of charting the next version of Caesar, Caesar Mark 3.
In the first film Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Caesar is more chimpanzee than human even after developing enhanced intelligence from an experimental drug, while in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes he straddles a tenuous balance between the two.
There’s another character, however, that has garnered the actor a lot of praise over the past five years: Caesar, the chimpanzee from the modern Planet of the Apes series.
