JAMES Franco's Rise of the Planet of the Apes character was supposed to have been killed off, it has been revealed.

The actor took on the role of Will, a scientist who unexpectedly mutates a gene in laboratory apes when trying to find a cure for Alzheimer's. Studio Fox's last-minute decision to save the character led to reshoots which extended the movie's post-production schedule.

Franco had filmed a death scene for Will, says The Hollywood Reporter. Fox's president of post-production Ted Gagliano said: "We shot [the alternate ending] for three hours and [Franco] was back on the plane."

The sequence saw Will get caught in the crossfire between Andy Serkis's leader of the apes Caesar and the military. However, the studio decided against the ending and flew Franco from North Carolina to California to instead shoot another final scene with Caesar.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes director Rupert Wyatt recently hinted at possible sequel ideas.

Wyatt suggested that an update to the reboot could be set eight years in the future, with young apes and humans going into battle with each

Are you glad he survived or should he have been killed off?

i didn't even see the movie, now u ruined it u darn aussie!

Someone watched this?

This was a good movie, if you're someone, you saw it. I thought it was all set up for Franco to die really, was surprised when he did not.

It was an excellent movie. I thought he was going to die and was surprised they didn't kill him.

never crossed my mind to give it a look

It surprised me big time. Much much better than I thought it would be. Trust me you'll enjoy it.

Really, it is kind of fucked up that any suspense built around the possible death of the main character was ruined in the thread title...for i have not seen Rise of the Planet of the Apes...

if the rep system was still in place...you would be negged.

I apologize. It wont ruin the movie though anyway.

u didnt ruin it for real. That was the best movie this year imo. It was a totally different story then what I expected. I never saw the preview to it and im kinda happy now after seeing it. You should make it your next watch OU. When the ape has sex with his dad it kinda got weird but I just blocked it out. Shit I might've ruined it now, but I know u would like that OU... so carry on.

Erm Freak I suggest you change the title, not a huge spoiler by any chance but I little common courtesy goes a long way.

Great movie, the ending was touching.
