    Star Movies to air Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

    MUMBAI: Every action has its consequences. For a long time, the human race has taken for granted its dominance as a sentient being. They have always assumed that nature and everything in it belongs to him and him alone and that they can experiment with it as they please. But sometimes, reality begs to differ.

     

    Ten years after the planet is ravaged due to a plague that is wiping out humanity, a group of scientists in San Francisco struggle to stay alive in the aftermath, while apes with genetically enhanced intelligence, have started to build a civilization of their own. What happens next is what Star Movies is bringing for its viewers with the television premiere of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

     

    It’s not a just a blockbuster movie, it’s a struggle. A gut-wrenching pendulum of survival that makes you think – what would you do if your freedom was at stake? What will you do if the safety of your family was threatened? Find out the ultimate rush for freedom, the most basic instinct of any species – to survive. Witness the biggest fight known to man on Star Movies, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes on 31st May at 1pm and 9pm!

     

    At Star Movies, we don’t believe in just watching the fight unfold but become a part of it, and the marketing campaign for the premiere will give an opportunity to the viewers to pick a side and proclaim their allegiance. You can either join the human army or the ape army on the day of the premiere and witness the epic saga unfold.

     

    A sequel to ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’, the film recounts the ape empire’s conflicts with a sustaining human rebellion. This American sci-fi film epic received an Academy Award nomination for Best Visual Effects and its third installment is set to be released in July 2017.

     

    Starring Andy Serkis, Jason Clarke, Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Toby Kebbell, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Kirk Acevedo, this film is thrilling and exciting and keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout its duration.

     

    It’s time to pick a side. It’s time to watch the most epic battle for survival with the television premiere of the ‘Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes’ on 31st May at 1pm and 9pm, only On STAR MOVIES!
