It is revealed that "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" may have a new movie directed by the director of "Maze Runner"

According to the latest news from HollywoodReporter, Fox has hired Wes Ball, the director of "Maze Runner", to produce a new "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" movie.

It is not clear whether this will be a sequel to 2017's "War for the Planet of the Apes" or another completely different movie. The "Planet of the Apes" series is based on the sci-fi novel of the same name by French author Pierre Boulle. It was first released as a movie in 1968 and received much praise. In 2001, Fox led the first reboot of the film, which was titled "Planet of the Apes" in China.

In 2011, Fox released "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", starring James Franco and Andy Serkis as the leader of the apes, followed by sequels "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" and "Last War for the Planet of the Apes" in 2014 and 2017 respectively.

In addition, Hollywood Reporter did not report details such as actors, screenwriters and release date, and it is clear that the film is still in the early stages of preparation. There are actually early signs that Fox will launch a new work with this IP. When Disney acquired Fox, CEO Iger said that the "Planet of the Apes" series IP was one of their top priorities.
