“I think one of the best things about it is that you can literally be anybody, you can literally play anyone, as Dad has proven.”
Andy pioneered the performance technique in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, before re-teaming with Peter Jackson to portray the iconic giant gorilla King Kong in his 2005 remake.
Aside from Caesar, he has since portrayed VFX characters such as Supreme Leader Snoke in the new Star Wars trilogy, Baloo in his Jungle Book film Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle and Captain Haddock in The Adventures of Tintin.
“I love the idea of it,” Ruby added. “I don’t really see it as a mask, but more like having the freedom to just go and do and be anything.
“And the added thrill of all of that amazing digital stuff put on.”
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is out in cinemas today and, although Ruby is not part of the cast, the film is the first of a planned trilogy for Disney that she’d love to get involved in.
“The first of the next generation [of Planet of the Apes] is coming out, and I’m really excited to see it,” she said.
“I’d love to do something like that, it’d be great.”
