As if L.A.’s famed Venice Seaside scene wasn’t wild sufficient — now it is acquired apes patrollin’ the sand … on horseback, no much less!!!
Yeah, the advertising crew behind “Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes” got here up with a severely eye-catching option to hype the flick Monday … getting a bunch of apes to saddle up and journey across the seaside.
No, they don’t seem to be actual apes — PETA can be throughout that — however the actors in costume had been fairly convincing at a look … trying very very like a scene ripped straight from the film’s plot of the apes taking on.
Fortunately, the actors did not precisely put the horses right into a full gallop, choosing a slower stroll across the seaside … paired with intense, menacing stares to make their presence felt.
Regardless of the shortage of motion, the ape invasion actually acquired tongues wagging in regards to the upcoming flick, which is ready to swing into U.S. cinemas Might 10.
The web fandom went bananas over the advertising stunt, hailing it as pure genius and confessing it is acquired them hooked and able to watch the film.
Directed by Wes Ball, this film serves because the sequel to 2017’s “War for the Planet of the Apes.”
The one challenge with this stunt is Venice Seaside is already crammed with outrageous sights and characters — so, primates on patrol would possibly look like simply one other Monday.
