Netflix has canceled its upcoming spin-off series ‘The Rats,’ which was set to be a prequel to the popular fantasy drama ‘The Witcher.’ The spin-off would have focused on the group of renegades Ciri joined at the end of season three. Despite the success of ‘The Witcher,’ which is set to return for a fourth and final season, Netflix has decided to shelve plans for the spin-off.,
The 2011 film ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’ is a prequel to the iconic ‘Planet of the Apes’ franchise, and it stands on its own as an excellent film that delves into the origins of the ape-dominated world. The film follows Dr. Will Rodman (James Franco), who creates a medicine that enhances apes’ intelligence but has deadly consequences for humans. Andy Serkis’ performance as Caesar, the first ape born with the medicine’s effects, is remarkable and brings an emotional depth to the film.
