 Andy Serkis is known as the master of motion capture, providing compelling performances for characters including Gollum in the Lord of the Rings films and the titular character in Peter Jacksons King Kong. He also, of course, performs as Caesar in the Planet of the Apes franchise. But mo-cap newcomer Steve Zahn is giving him a run for his money as new chimp in the Apes camp, Bad Ape. And while Serkis might have been able to provide performance capture tips on set to newbie Steve Zahn, its actor and movement coach Terry Notary who works closely with the actors to get them all moving and acting like primates. FANDOM asked Steve Zahn to show us how to act ape.  Terry works from a totally different spot, he begins. He works from right here [points to chest]. Internalizing this character, this being, this chimpanzee. For Zahn, its partly about shedding inhibitions. With Terry, the first thing is, like, we posture, he says. Everything we do, we hold ourselves, were consciously aware of our bodies. A chimpanzee doesnt. They hold their centre, they breathe out, their stomach hangs out. They dont care about that. But its not lazy, theres a lot of strength there. When we turn our head and look at something its totally different. Their whole body turns. Theres a different focus. The focus kind of follows. Its all connected, how they move.                                                               Zahn observed apes to better understand them: I was always fascinated with the ape that just kind of sat there. And I would think: How is that different to me sitting there being bored? Its totally different. And its just this kind of internal peace. In the film, Zahns Bad Ape character has taught himself to speak. Not quite as proficient as Caesar, he retains a lot of simian characteristics in his communication techniques. I remember I started, like, I would talk and when I talked and said Os I would always point to my mouth and go O. And I thought, Oh, thats [from] when I was taught [to speak].  His final words of advice? Dont overthink it, he says. If you just came on set, I would try not to move too much. I would just think strength but think peace. Peaceful strength. Watch Zahns monkeying around in the video above (yeah, we know theyre not monkeys). War For the Planet of the Apes is released in the UK on July 11 and in the US on July 14.

Despicable Me 3 sees the introduction of a major new character: Grus twin brother Dru. Thats right. In a busy plot that revolves around Gru raising a family, losing his job, fighting an evil former 80s TV-star with a grudge and being abandoned by the Minions, Gru discovers his life isnt what he thought it was. Hes got a secret twin brother. Separated at birth, Gru was raised by his mother, while Dru was raised by his father  and Steve Carell provides the voice for both. And while they share similarities, at the same time theyre very different  in both voice and character.  As characters, Gru is intent on fighting the good fight while Dru is drawn to their fathers calling to villainy. Dru wants Gru to teach him everything he knows. Dru also ended up with Grus share of the hair  Gru is bald as a coot, while Dru has a flowing blond mane. Gru and Dru share a lot of screen time in Despicable Me 3, and theres often a lot of interplay between the two  but how did Carell go about recording the voices? I did them separately. I would do Gru first and then I would do Dru the second half just to try to distinguish one from the other, he says. Theres even a bit in the film where each impersonates the other, which must have been tricky. It was a little weird. That was a little strange, says Carell. Is Despicable Me 4 Happening? On the subject of whether theres going to be a Despicable Me 4, aside from Minions spin-offs, both Carell and his co-star Kristen Wiig are enthusiastic about the idea. Kristen says, We dont know yet. I hope so, that would be amazing. Steve, meanwhile has this to say: I hope people like this one enough to warrant a fourth, theres a lot going on in this movie. Theres a new villain whos hysterical. The Minions have gone off. Theyve decided theyre going to try to explore something new, and Lucy is dealing with all this stuff with being a new mom and Gru is fired and he finds out he has a brother. There are a lot of different story threads in this one but I think it definitely leaves it open for a fourth, which will be great. Watch Steve Carell doing the voices of Gru and Dru above.  Despicable Me 3 is out in the UK and US on June 30.

What is Minionese? Its the fictional language spoken by the cute little yellow Minion critters in the Despicable Me animated franchise. It sounds like gibberish  and it is to a large extent but its also a living, breathing language. Kind of. One that director and voice actor Pierre Coffin made up as he went along. Its a mixture of various languages including French, Spanish, English and more  with a large dose of nonsense added in.Its very difficult to master though, as Steve Carell who plays villain-turned-good-guy Gru in the series and who had to speak Minionese in the latest instalment, attests.One of our directors does most of the minion voices and I had to actually do a little bit of Minionese in this movie and its really hard. Its a very specific language. I wasnt very good at it.FANDOM put Carell and his co-star Kristen Wiig, who plays Grus wife Lucy in the film, through their paces with a movie quiz  in Minionese.The challenge? Identify the famous lines from each of their movies translated into Minionese. See how they did in the video above.Despicable Me 3 continues the story of Gru, Lucy, their adorable daughters  Margo, Edith and Agnes  and the Minions.After he is fired from the Anti-Villain League for failing to take down the latest bad guy to threaten humanity, Gru finds himself in the midst of a major identity crisis. But when a mysterious stranger shows up to inform Gru that he has a long-lost twin brothera brother who desperately wishes to follow in his twins despicable footstepsone former super-villain will rediscover just how good it feels to be bad.Despicable Me 3 is out in the UK and US on June 30.
