Planet Of The Apes 3 2016 Latest News: Koba Confirmed To Appear In Next Movie; Release Date Confirmed!

Well it seems that the Planet of the Apes 3 2016 latest news involves the upcoming movie's release date to be confirmed.

According to Screenrant,

"The news broke that 20th Century Fox has gone ahead and recruited Dawn of the Planet of the Apes director Matt Reeves to co-write and direct the next installment in the franchise, which we'll simply refer to as Planet of the Apes 3 in lieu of an official title. As we predicted, the next Apes movie (after Dawn opens this year) has been scheduled for release in Summer 2016, which gives Reeves some two and a half years to write, shoot and edit the effects-heavy film.

Fox has set Planet of the Apes 3 to open in theaters on July 29th, 2016. There are currently no other films set to debut that day, though Reeves' projects will round out a month with a release docket that so far includes Independence Day 2, the Angry Birds movie, Ice Age 5 and an unspecified Marvel Studio project (potentially,Inhumans or Guardians of the Galaxy 2)."

Another Planet of the Apes 3 2016 latest news involves the appearance of Koba in the movie. Although the previous movie showed him falling to his death while fighting with Caesar, the brief view of the darkness accompanied by a weird sound definitely seemed as if Koba had survived his fall.

As IGN wrote,

"Badass Digest points out this chat Dawn director Matt Reeves did with Mtime wherein he revealed that not only does it seem like Koba survived, but he may also be in the next Apes, which Reeves will also direct:

'I thought that Toby Kebbell gave such an incredible performance. And I thought he was so powerful and I thought God you don't find a villain who has got that great a story. Because as you said he was not really formed as a villain, he's really a tragic figure. And I thought God, he's amazing let's leave open the possibility, let's create the door of a possibility if we find a story that becomes worth telling that we can go down that path again because I thought the vein was so rich. And so I actually had been working on a version where you could actually see him survive and I realized that it wasn't - it was Caesar's movie and it was undercutting the whole idea. It sort of felt cheap. And so as we were mixing I was like I want to just leave one tiny Easter egg right at the end. I want to leave open the door just the tiniest crack. So you found the crack.'"
