We have a lot of fun images coming out in 2024, and one of them is Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. The last three Planet of the Apes movies had no business being as good as they were when everyone thought they would be lazy cash grabs. It's one of the strongest trilogies to come out in the last couple of years, which says a lot. So when it was announced that they were going to keep making more movies, people were understandably nervous, the same way we were when Rise of the Planet of the Apes came out all the way back in 2011. The film is still a ways away, and it shares a release date with some big productions, so it could shift, but the official media site updated today with two new behind-the-scenes images featuring director Wes Ball and nine high-quality images from the film itself.
