You could maybe make another three after these three . You could do a great deal , there ’s a lot of story to mine there . There ’s a lot of clip to mine there . Go all the way up to the pointedness where an ape , it looks up and sees a spaceship crashing down . roaring , cut to Joseph Black . It goes back to ' 68 , and you start all over again . That would be the direction to go , I opine , in my mind .

Future Planet Of The Apes Films Should Proceed With Caution

Remaking The ‘68 Original Has Backfired In The Past

In unpacking Ball ’s quotation , it is important to first mention thatKingdom of the Planet of the Apesis reported to be the first film in what will be a newApestrilogy . Like the late reboot moviesRise , Dawn , andWar for the Planet of the Apes , this newApestrilogy will be chronologically setbefore the events of the 1968 original . ThatPlanet of the Apesspawned four unmediated subsequence , all of which were set after its events as the reign of the ape over planet Earth continued , which launch the door for the 2010s moving picture to go the prequel path .

ThePlanet of the Apesfranchise is at a vital item the right way now . War for the Planet of the Apes , stylized like a classical Western with a stoic hero and sweeping wide shots , was arguably the good in the franchise . Ball ’s young installment has a lot to live up to , but the earlyKingdom of the Planet of the Apesreviewsare convinced : At the time of committal to writing , the pic has an 84 % critic score on Rotten Tomatoes with 104 reviews . If it perform well at the box office , it will enter the door for more sequels , possibly as many as the director predicts .

But , what testis bequeath unsaid is that the first endeavour to remake the 1968Planet of the Apesdid not go well . In 2001 , Tim Burton released his own rendering , and while it was financially successful , it was receive poorly enough that the studio choose to boot again anyway . Of naturally , a remaking ofPlanet of the Apeswould have plenty of advantages today , admit access to better special effects . But consecrate the classic nature of the Charlton Heston variant , it would still be a risk of exposure , and Ball ’s plan might be the fresh option to keep this franchise escape .
