The next installment in the Planet of the Apes franchise, titled Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, appears to be a remake of the original 1968 film but with a twist. Set several generations in the future following Caesar's reign, the movie seems to blend the canon of the reboot films with the aesthetics and themes of the classic movies. The trailer suggests that Kingdom may be the first Apes film without a human lead, focusing instead on a planet ruled by apes. By returning to the franchise's roots, the film aims to deliver on the core concept that made the Apes franchise intriguing, potentially kickstarting a new wave of dystopic sci-fi blockbusters. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is set to release on May 24, 2024.
