Fox released the teaser for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes today via YouTube. The trailer for the highly anticipated movie has only been out for a couple of hours, but already has almost reached 800,00 views.

According to totalfilm.com the sequel to Rise of the Planet of the Apes is set about fifteen years into the future where there is a war going on between the monkeys and the human race. Caesar, still the leader of the pack, is still just as ruthless as he was before, if not worse. However, his old owner Gary decides to step up and attempt to handle the situation head-on in order to save the war-torn ruins of a civilization that he and his fellow citizens once knew.

Even though the trailer isn't even two minutes long, 20th Century Fox offers much excitement and action in the teaser and makes the wait until July much more difficult.
