The primates are ready for war in a new TV spot for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, which provides an unnerving look at the ape army.

A growing nation of genetically evolved apes led by Caesar is threatened by a band of human survivors of the devastating virus unleashed a decade earlier. They reach a fragile peace, but it proves short-lived, as both sides are brought to the brink of a war that will determine who will emerge as Earth's dominant species.

Meanwhile, Collider has unveiled a new poster for the film that shows the softer side of Caesar as he cradles a young ape.

Directed by Matt Reeves, the Fox sequel stars Andy Serkis, Gary Oldman, Jason Clarke and Keri Russell. It opens July 11.
