Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ Trailer Reveals Epic Conflict and New Generation of Ape Leaders
20th Century Studios has treated fans with the unveiling of the trailer for ‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes,’ the much-anticipated fourth installment in the groundbreaking reboot franchise. Directed by Wes Ball, this sequel to 2017’s ‘War for the Planet of the Apes’ is set to hit theaters on May 10.
The trailer delves into a world set in the distant future after Caeser’s rule, where apes have ascended as the dominant species, relegating humans to living in shadows akin to primates. A new tyrant ape emerges, aiming to replicate human history in his bid to establish supremacy over Earth.
As a new order takes shape under the tyrannical ape leader, one young ape named Noa embarks on a perilous journey that challenges his understanding of the past, compelling him to make decisions that will shape the fate of apes and humans alike.
