About Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes:

  • “The new Apes movie is set many years after the conclusion of 2017’s War for the Planet of the Apes.
  • Many apes societies have grown from when Moses-like Caesar brought his people to an oasis, while humans have been reduced to a feral-like existence.
  • Some groups have never heard of Caesar, while others have contorted his teaching to build burgeoning empires.
  • In this setting, one ape leader begins to enslave other groups to find human technology, while another ape, who watched his clan be taken, embarks on a journey to find freedom.
  • A young human woman becomes key to the latter's quest, although she has plans of her own.”
