Maddox (Planet of the Apes)
- Maddox (Planet of the Apes)
Colonel Andrew Maddox is an American astronaut, in the second Planet of the Apes movie, 1970's Beneath the Planet of the Apes. He was portrayed by actor Tod Andrews.
Maddox commanded the rescue mission sent to find astronauts Taylor, Dodge, Landon and Stewart, who went missing in the events of the previous film, Planet of the Apes. Colonel Maddox was accompanied on this mission by John Brent.
Following an old navy tradition, Brent sometimes addressed the commander of the ship as "Skipper", just as Landon had sometimes addressed Taylor in the previous film.
Maddox and Brent's spaceship passed through a "Hasslein Curve", sending them two-thousand years into the future. The ship made a crash-landing, badly injuring Maddox in the process. Brent helped Maddox out of the ship, provided him with medical attention and made him as comfortable as possible.
Maddox was horrified to hear that they had moved two-thousand years forward in time. He spoke of his wife and two daughters being long since dead. Maddox himself died shortly afterwards and was buried by Brent.
