Snoop Dogg, the iconic rapper, producer, director and all-around cultural trendsetter, is stepping into the sci-fi genre with a twist that only he could pull off. In doing so, Snoop shares his aspirations of a Planet of the Apes-inspired movie that swaps out apes for dogs! In fact, her recently teased this ambitious project, giving fans a taste of his vision in an interview with Variety.
“I can’t really give up the storyline, but I love Planet of the Apes, but just imagine it was dogs instead of apes”. Snoop explained. And while War for the Planet of the Apes left audiences on the edge of their seats in 2017, fans of the franchise have been waiting a long seven years for the next chapter, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, which was recently released in 2024. Snoop, it turns out, couldn’t wait that long either. So, he’s channeling his frustration into creating something in the same realm.
It’s easy to picture a post-human world where dogs, unleashed and left to roam, have evolved beyond our understanding. But Snoop’s challenge is also part of the hybe because how would dogs, without opposable thumbs, construct their own society or culture? It’s a vision that’s half heartwarming, half wild, and 100% Snoop.
Will this canine-filled world reflect Snoop’s laid-back swagger, or will it explore deeper themes of loyalty, freedom, and survival? Overall, one thing’s certain —Snoop’s take on a sci-fi film has the potential to become a cultural moment in its own right. As with all his projects, fans can expect Snoop to bring his signature creativity and laid-back intensity to the screen.
So, music lovers and film fans, prepare yourselves! Snoop Dogg is about to take us on a ride where “doggy business” meets sci-fi action. With that being said, we can’t wait to see what our beloved D-O-double-G has in store!
