First Trailer for Wes Ball’s ‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ Movie

“What a wonderful day!!” 20th Century Studios has revealed the first official trailer for the new Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, continuing the story from the outstanding Rise of the Planet of the Apes trilogy featuring Caesar. This one is directed by the talented VFX filmmaker Wes Ball, of the Maze Runner series and Ruin. Years after the events of War for the Planet of the Apes (2017), many ape clans have emerged in the oasis to which Caesar led his fellow apes, while humans have regressed into a feral state. One ape leader prevents the teachings of Caesar in order to enslave other clans in search of the last traces of a secret human technology, while another ape embarks on a journey to find freedom alongside a human girl. Starring Owen Teague as Cornelius, the chimpanzee son of Caesar. The ensemble cast also includes Freya Allan, Peter Macon, Eka Darville, Kevin Durand, Travis Jeffery, Neil Sandilands, Sara Wiseman, Lydia Peckham, Ras-Samuel Weld A’abzgi, William H. Macy, & Dichen Lachman. Oh this looks terrific. I’m loving the overgrown desolate future, the feuding Apes tribes, and humans as pets, and everything else. // Continue Reading ›
