It’ll be a little longer still before we get a trailer for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, but these four newly released character posters are a wonderful taste to get us excited for what’s to come. Check them out below after the synopsis.

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.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes staring Andy Serkis, Jason Clarke, Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Toby Kebbell, Kodi Smith-Mcphee, Enrique Muriciano and Kirk Acevedo is slated to hit theaters July 11th, 2014.
