So long as the budget isn't cut with every sequel, has an overarching plot with a purpose, and a good director this could be very interesting indeed. All of these things led to the mish mash of plots barely strung together in the original series, due to their having to come up with something new when they killed the main characters off at the end of the first two films. If done right the humans in ape costumes can be pulled off without it looking goofy. If they did in in the late 60's with that technology imagine what can be done today. After all they can't possibly screw it up any worse than Burton did with the remake.

Each generation getting more and more like Humans. While humans devolved. Very interested in how the first ape got more intelligent and was able to pass on this trait and more to future generations.

Why get directors who already like to do a shit load of remakes to do another? I'll pass no matter who is directing. I would have to disagree with CaptinReg.

Actors in monkey suits will never make a comeback. I don't know what made the first film so popular, but I don't think today's audiences will ever go for an anthropomorphic political thriller, except for maybe the furries, but who cares what they think?
