Greer is coming off a summer in which she appeared in some of the most notable movies of the year, including Jurassic World, Ant-Man, Tomorrowland and Entourage. Apes will reteam her with Harrelson, with whom she just finished shooting Wilson, Fox Searchlight’s adaptation of a Dan Clowes graphic novel

She is repped by CAA, Principato-Young Entertainment, and Felker Toczek.
