Trivia Mr. MacDonald (Hari Rhodes in Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972)) was also meant to return, but after Rhodes refused, the character was changed to his brother, and Austin Stoker was cast. See more »
Goofs Caesar's famous "Now, fight like apes!" line is marred by his ape lower-mouth appliance beginning to fall off, revealing his own human mouth inside. The director tried to hide this by blurring those frames of film at the lower end of the screen. What looks like dust on the camera was intentional. See more »
