Planet of the Apes Series Episode 5

Battle for the Planet of the Apes was always intended to be the final film in this classic sci-fi series. With Fox executives’ eyes firmly on a television future this fifth installment was designed to close out the saga and design a universe full of more episodic adventures. However, with a slashed budget, executive interference, and few returning cast members could this Battle ever be won? With a gold level donation to support Now Playing you can listen and find out!
