Planet of the Apes Movies: The Mixed-Up, Crazy Timeline Explained

  • Learn why the new Planet of the Apes movies can't ever connect to the classic films as we explain the sprawling Planet of the Apes timeline. Every time we get a trailer for a new Planet of the Apes movie, people wonder just where the latest film in the venerable series takes place in the Apes timeline. From the Andy Serkis trilogy to the original movies to various other offshoots, this is a franchise that spans thousands of years. And not just that, but it also takes place over a variety of timelines.
    Basically, the chronology of the Planet of the Apes movies is a total mess, totally crazy, but also - and this is the most important part - totally awesome. So with the latest film in the series, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, now here, let’s board the spaceship Icarus and blast off as we try to explain… the mixed-up, crazy Planet of the Apes movies timeline.
    Ahhhh, where to start, where to start? It’s a complicated question when you’re dealing with a cyclical, if ever-evolving, chronology where there’s no beginning or end. This is time travel, people! So how do you even watch the Planet of the Apes movies in order when the end is the beginning and the beginning is the end?!
    The most sensible place to begin for a chronological explanation of the Apes movies would seem to be with the most recent so-called “reboot” series that kicked off in 2011, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. From there we can go to Dawn of, War for, and then delve into the original 1968 Charlton Heston Apes film, which spawned four theatrical sequels (Beneath, Escape From, Conquest of, Battle for) as well as a couple of TV shows. And yes, we will also need to discuss the time Mark Wahlberg went to Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes as well...

    Its not that complicated. The older movies are their own series, this is a new series. Its a reboot from rise to this new movie. They are not connected.

    The "so-called reboot series" is, indeed, a reboot series. That means the events in Rise, Dawn, War, and Kingdom represent a new timeline loosely based on the lore of the old movies.
    That means these movies aren't strictly tied to the events of the original series of films, but we may see echoes or retellings of certain events.

      It can just connect to the original film and ignore the other films in the original series.
      Yes, that would mean there two ships called the Icarus. As for nuclear war that can still happen as the director said he would be interested in showing the destruction of the Statue of Liberty.

    It should be noted that Rick Jaffa, the writer and a producer of Rise, was asked in an interview if the film was a prequel or a reboot. He said reboot.
    Also the space in the original was never called the Icarus or given any other name.

    Also want to point out that Disney owns Marvel, and Marvel has the rights for Aliens, Predator, and Planet of the Apes--and are considered canon along with the films. The first couple Marvel Planet of the Apes series revolved in between the current Ceaser re-boot movies, basically filled in some gaps. The new comic series is heavily (origin story of the original Nova) based around the original movies. If they are still sticking with their canon M.O., then that may be a hint at the direction they're heading to. Just my opinion.

    The first series takes place before the original film. Just because the plague happened in Escape doesnt mean it happens the same way in the original timeline.

      @notmephisto1375 Месяц назад +1

      Cornelius somewhat details this in Escape. The plague was the same. What was different was Caesar's leadership which advanced the ape rebellion and ultimately led to harmony between apes and humans.
