"There are parallels with what's happening in the Middle East.."

The Planet Of The Apes movies are traditionally fairly allegorical affairs, with the monkey stars representing several real world issues across the course of the franchise.

So we asked the cast and creators of Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes if the new film has a political message. See Gary Oldman, Andy Serkis and more explain all in our exclusive video below.

Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes is out Friday.
