Landon (Planet of the Apes)

Landon (Planet of the Apes)

Landon is a character in the movie "Planet of the Apes." He is played by Robert Gunner.

After crash landing on the planet, Landon and his fellow astronaut George Taylor bicker as they explore the planet. Taylor laughs as Landon plants a tiny US flag on the surface of the planet. Later, Landon and Taylor - along with another astronaut named Dodge - are captured by a group of apes and taken to a city populated by apes. Taylor escapes and discovers that Landon has been lobotomised by an ape scientist and left a mere shell of his former self.

A sequel revealed that he had been killed.
