I am a huge Planet of the Apes fan so when they announced they were once again rebooting the franchise with 2011s Rise of the Planet of the Apes I was a bit nervous like most fans were. Surprisingly the film delivered more than we all expected and was really good and kicked off the series with a bang leading right into 2014s Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and 2017s War For The Planet of the Apes. IT felt like it was the end of this series, but here we are with the next chapter Kingdom of the Planet of the apes starring Owen Teague, Freya Allan, Kevin Durand, Peter Macon, and William H. Macy from The Maze Runner trilogy director Wes Ball at the helm.

​

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes follows the future following Caesar’s reign, in which apes are the dominant species living harmoniously and humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will cause him to question all that he has known about the past and to make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.

While you will have to wait until Memorial Day 2024 to see the film in theaters, you can check out the official trailer here now from 20th Century Studios.
