James Franco (127 Hours) stars as Will Rodman, a neuroscientist living in San Francisco trying to develop a cure for Alzheimer’s disease by testing on chimpanzees, giving them a human level of intelligence. After a test subject’s baby, Caesar, is orphaned, Will decides to raise him at home on his own with his Alzheimer-stricken father (John Lithgow; “Dexter”). What begins simply as a continuation of his experiment quickly turns into a problem for Will, as Caesar is taken away from him and forced to live in a primate facility. As Caesar’s intelligence continues to grow, he begins to stake his claim as the leader of his new primate counterparts, which will ultimately lead to the RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES.
Directed by Rupert Wyatt (The Escapist), this special effects blockbuster features fantastic supporting performances from Freida Pinto (Slumdog Millionaire), Brian Cox (Red), Tom Felton (Harry Potter films) and Andy Serkis (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy) in a ground-breaking performance. The RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES Blu-ray is loaded with bonus material including deleted scenes, making-of featurettes commentaries and more.

Icarus – 3978 A.D.
Great film!
The ship was called the Icarus. It crash lands on the ape dominated planet in 3978 AD though now I guess it should be CE for Common Era.
About that ship name though, am I the only one that thinks that’s a horrible name for a ship? Icarus, who flew too close the sun and… crashed horribly. What did they think would happen? At least naming the ship Icarus in “Sunshine” made sense since that’s a movie about flying to the Sun.
The ship is named Icarus and thanks to the readout of the display, we know the year is 3878 A.D.
The name of the spaceship is “Icarus”, and they land in the year 3978 A.D.
Icarus, crash lands in 3978 AD. I love how they had Had three easter eggs in the movie *sopiler alert* the newspaper with the astronauts getting lost in space and a the television with the news channel reporting that mars might have water, and the statue of liberty that cesar was building . I would love this as a christmas present .

Sorry for the double entry.
Icarus in 3978 AD
The ship crashed landed in 3978 AD. The ship was called Icarus by fans but was not named in the original script.
Although fans have named the ship USS Icarus, it doesn’t have that name in the movie. It just has ANSA on the side. But, whatever you call it, it lands in 3978.
