||
| − | * Caesar was named by [[Charles Rodman]], who was mumbling quotes from Shakespeare's play ''Julius Caesar'' on the day Will brought the chimp home. |
||
| − | * An earlier version of the script notes [[Bright Eyes (CE)|Bright Eyes]]' treatment at [[Gen-Sys Laboratories]] beginning on ''"Tuesday, March 10, 2011"'', with Caesar's birth following six week later (approx. 21 April, 2011). Seven years (according to that script) spent at the [[Rodman House]] would place the [[Ape Rebellion (CE)|Ape Rebellion]] around [[2018]]. Whether this is the correct year or not is unknown. It has been rumored that an August 2016 calendar was put on the set of the kitchen at the Rodman House. The film itself spans eight years, as evidenced by the captions "Three Years Later" and "Five Years Later". See also: [[Rise of the Planet of the Apes#What Year Is The Film Set?|What Year Is The Film Set?]] |
||
| − | * The early script differs in that [[Rocket]]'s eyes begin to go green (a sign of intelligence) after having bitten Caesar during their initial confrontation. After Caesar and Rocket ''together'' escape the [[San Bruno Primate Shelter]] and visit both the [[Rodman House]] and the [[Gen-Sys Laboratories]], they use stolen scissors to share their blood with the other apes at the facility and pass on their viral intelligence. Caesar also has a relationship with [[Cornelia]], a female chimp at the facility. The apes go to the Gen-Sys Laboratories and then to the ''[[San Francisco Zoo]]'' to free the apes Caesar has encountered over the years. At the end, Will takes a bullet intended for Caesar, and dies in his arms. |
||
| − | * A deleted scene included in the DVD release had Caesar using his hands to push the helicopter off into the water with Jacobs inside. This would be changed to [[Koba]] using his feet to do so. |
||
| − | * Most of Caesar's dialogue is either vocalizations, sign language, and the word "NO". To create Caesar's voice, sound designers Chuck Michael and John Larsen recorded hundreds of chimp sounds at the ''Chimp Haven'' sanctuary in Louisiana and mixed them with some of the audio [[Andy Serkis]] provided on set. The duo also aged Caesar’s voice from that of an infant to a full-grown chimp.<ref>[http://www.filmindependent.org/filmmaker-spotlight/five-films-the-sounds-the-thing/ ''Five Films: The Sounds’ The Thing''] - Film Independent (February 6th, 2012)</ref> |
||
| − | * It could be possible that Caesar would be more intelligent due to the fact he has been exposed to the [[ALZ-113]], and his exposure to the [[ALZ-112]] while he was in the embryo. A close-up on Caesar's plotting scene and showed that his eyes were more green than before. |
||
| − | * According to the ''Rise ''timeline, Caesar is seen at 3 years old, then in the year in which the [[Ape Rebellion (CE)|Ape Rebellion]] takes place, Caesar is 8 and can be classified as a teenager whereas in the events of ''Dawn'', which takes place ten years after the rebellion and virus outbreak, Caesar is 18 meaning he is fully grown and possibly an elder ape. |
||
| − | * The quote that Charles says when he picks up Caesar for the first time as a baby could have been prophetic in terms of Caesar growing up and becoming a leader. |
||
| − | * Caesar's first word, "NO"! serves as a parallel to the story that Cornelius tells in ''[[Escape from the Planet of the Apes]]'' about the ape known as [[Aldo]] uttering the word and being the first ape to speak. It is also parallel to Lisa telling Caesar (Milo) "No" in ''[[Conquest of the Planet of the Apes]]''. |

Revision as of 18:42, 27 June 2015
For the character from Conquest of the Planet of the Apes and Battle for the Planet of the Apes, see Caesar (APJ)
- War has already begun. Ape started war. And human...human will not forgive. You must go before fighting begins. I am sorry...my friend.
- Caesar warns Malcolm to seek refuge
Caesar is an evolved chimpanzee who is the biological son of the late Alpha and the late Bright Eyes, wild chimpanzees from the West African Jungle. After the death of his mother, Caesar became the adoptive son of Will Rodman and the later Caroline Aranha. Through Will, Caesar became the adoptive grandson of the late Charles Rodman. Later in life, Caesar goes on to lead an Ape Rebellion before going on to rule as a king over the newly formed Ape Colony. As a king, he becomes the husband of fellow San Bruno Primate Shelter inmate, Cornelia, and the father of two sons, Blue Eyes and Milo. Because he is the king of the ape colony, he is the patriarch of the the Royal Ape Family. When humans are rediscovered, Caesar becomes the ape counterpart of Malcolm. He is also the main protagonist of Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

Trivia
- Caesar is a similar character to Taylor in the original films, because of his situation and because the birthmark on his shoulder may be inspired by the burns Taylor got on his shoulder after fighting another human.
- It can also be seen that this version of Caesar is similar to Roddy McDowall's Caesar in Conquest of the Planet of the Apes and Battle for the Planet of the Apes as both become leaders of ape colonies, marry and have sons.
- Similar to Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, Caesar was named after the Roman dictator Julius Caesar. Unlike Julius Caesar, he stands for leadership through kindness.
- The screenwriters believed that apes sexually mature at 8 years old and that Caesar could thus potentially attack Hunsiker at that age. Although chimps can become unpredictable at age 8, they don't become adults until at or past the age of 13.
- Caesar was actually to be played by three people, Andy Serkis mostly played him from infancy to adulthood, Devyn Dalton played him in some scenes when he was a toddler, and Terry Notary played Caesar in the Golden Gate Bridge battle scene.
- At Comic Con 2013, Andy Serkis mentioned in an interview that in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes Caesar would have a teenage son and wife. It was confirmed by the film's producer Dylan Clark that Caesar's wife will in fact be Cornelia while the son was only mentioned a couple of times by Jason Clarke and by Andy Serkis himself. Actor Nick Thurston announced on his Facebook page that he was playing the role of Caesar's son and that the character's name was River before the name was changed to Blue Eyes during post-production. In a press conference at Comic Con, Andy Serkis mentioned that Caesar will also have an infant child meaning he would have more then one child in the film.
- It has been suspected that Caesar actually witnessed the deaths of his surrogate parents Will and Caroline.
- The words Caesar speaks in Rise are: 'NO!' and 'Caesar is Home' which he says clearly while according to the film's DVD subtitles he says "Wait!", "Go Up" and "Get Under" which are incoherent during the Battle on the Golden Gate Bridge. He also seems to say "NOW!" when he emerges out of the fog on the back of a police horse.
- In the first official still from Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, his shooting star birthmark wasn't visible.
- When Caesar bites Hunsiker while attempting to protect Charles, it's a reference to Andy Serkis' earlier role in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings Trilogy when Gollum (Andy Serkis) bites Frodo's finger off in their final confrontation.
- Judy Greer revealed in an interview that Caesar is still grounded in terms of personality because of the presence of his wife.
- Matt Reeves has said in the recent USA Today sneak peek article that the other apes who value Caesar's leadership see him as their king and as their father.
- According to a recent article, Caesar is not a big fan of guns.
- Caesar will share some emotional scenes with both Ellie and Malcolm.
- Caesar will be in a dilemma in this movie as he has very difficult choices to make regarding his apes and the surviving humans led by Malcolm.
- There is a difference in the two trailers recently released in the shot of the baby's birth. In the domestic trailer, Caesar isn't wearing war paint but in the international trailer its the same shot only Caesar is wearing war-paint.
- In the first official featurette for Dawn, there is a never before seen shot where Caesar hugs Koba but the reason is currently unknown. The scene does return in a deleted scene where Caesar thanks Koba for saving his life from the bear and declares to the entire Ape Village in speech, "Apes together strong!"
- According to an interview Caesar has only one scene with Dreyfus.
- Andy Serkis has mentioned in an interview that he has based Caesar's relationship with Blue Eyes on the relationship he has with his own teenage son.
- Andy Serkis stated that he took great inspiration from revolutionary and former president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela when he said "Really what Caesar is all about, he is empathy". and "It was really important to base the character on a leader who is capable of empathy and there aren't that many out there, however Nelson Mandela came to mind".
