‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ director Wes Ball spoke about the Indian film industry, describing it as a “promising market.” He also expressed interest in collaborating with talented artists and storytellers within the industry.
She spoke about the Indian film industry and said, “It’s a huge market. Amazing films are being made and there are so many talented artists there (Indian film industry). It’s fantastic.” Expressing her willingness to work with Indian actors, she added, “I would love to work with any great artist and any great storyteller there is in the world. I am looking forward to the opportunities. I have seen so many talented people. I can work with anyone who I think would fit the role.”
He also shared that he recently watched SS Rajamouli’s ‘RRR’. “I love the film. Indian filmmakers are making an impact across the world with such fantastic films.”
Wes Ball’s direction of ‘Reign of the Planet of the Apes’ has been widely praised. The film, set for release in 2024, is an American science fiction action film that represents the fourth installment in the ‘Planet of the Apes’ reboot series and the tenth overall in the franchise. The film was written by Josh Friedman and features a cast that includes Owen Teague, Freya Allan, Kevin Durand, Peter Macon, and William H Macy.
The Planet of the Apes series began in 1968 with the iconic film starring Charlton Heston and has subsequently become one of the most beloved franchises. This has led to the creation of four sequels to the original film. The most recent film, War for the Planet of the Apes, directed by Matt Reeves, was released in 2017. It seems that the time has come for another visit to the Planet of the Apes.
Talking about the film and how challenging it was to make the sequel, he shared, “I remember watching the original film series a lot as a kid with my dad. The film still holds up. ‘Planet of the Apes’ came out in 1968, yet it still works. These stories are hard to make, but I love making these kinds of films.”
He also shared details about his upcoming projects. The renowned director is currently involved in the production of a film called ‘Legend of Zelda’, inspired by a series of action-adventure games of the same name, developed by Japanese game creators Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka.
“I’m working on a film adaptation of ‘Legend of Zelda,’ the video game that so many people my age grew up with. Another thing I’m working on is sequels. This is just the beginning as far as the ape franchise goes,” he added.
