The director, producer, and star names are not included in the trailer because the focus is on the apes and storyline as a sequel. The music builds tension between the apes and humans. Shots are selected from important scenes to provide clues without revealing critical action.

Rudolf otto – scholarly definition
Rudolf Otto believed that experiences of God are passive and that God is ultimately transcendent, distant, and mysterious. He described the experience of the divine as "mysterium tremendum et fascinans" - a fearful and fascinating mystery. This experience induces a reaction of silence from being overwhelmed by God's power, which provokes terror due to its tremendous and wholly other nature, yet also fascinates due to its merciful and gracious qualities. Otto saw God as numinous - an ineffable divine presence that is sought from below by its higher nature and felt through its urgent, vital force.
