Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes(2024)
- Many years after the reign of Caesar, a young ape goes on a journey that will lead him to question everything he's been taught about the past and make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.
- The new Apes movie is set many years after the conclusion of 2017's War for the Planet of the Apes. Many apes societies have grown from when the Moses-like Caesar brought his people to an oasis, while humans have been reduced to a feral-like existence. Some ape groups have never heard of Caesar, while others have contorted his teaching to build burgeoning empires. In this setting, one ape leader begins to enslave other groups to find human technology, while another ape, who watched his clan be taken, embarks on a journey to find freedom. A young human woman becomes key to the latter's quest, although she has plans of her own.
- Set several generations in the future following Caesar's reign, in which apes are the dominant species living harmoniously and humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will cause him to question all that he has known about the past and to make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.300 years after Caesar's death, the apes have established numerous clans, while humans have become feral. Noa is a chimpanzee of an ape clan specializing in falconry, led by Noa's father, Koro. Noa prepares for a coming of age ceremony by collecting eagle eggs with his friends Anaya and Soona; however, a human scavenger follows Noa home and inadvertently cracks Noa's egg in a brief scuffle, which forces him to go find a replacement egg. On the way, Noa encounters warlike apes who discover Noa's horse. They use it to track down his clan. When Noa gets back home, he finds the village burning. The raiders' leader, Sylva, kills Koro, and Noa is knocked unconscious.
Noa awakens, discovering his family and clan have been abducted. Noa buries his father and ventures off to rescue his clan. In an airport ruin, he encounters an orangutan named Raka, who tells Noa about Caesar's teachings before deciding to travel with Noa. They notice the same human scavenger from earlier nearby. Raka offers her food and a blanket, naming her Nova. During their journey, they encounter a group of primal humans before Sylva's raiders suddenly attack them. Noa and Raka rescue Nova, who, to their surprise, can speak. She tells them that her real name is Mae and that the raiders took his clan to an old human bunker.
On their way to the settlement, they are ambushed by Sylva while trying to cross a bridge. In the ensuing fight, Raka saves Mae from drowning but is washed away by the current after Sylva cuts the rope that Raka had been clinging to. Noa and Mae are captured and taken to the apes' coastal camp, where Noa reunites with his clan and meets the ape king, Proximus Caesar, who seeks to "evolve" using human technology locked within a large vault. Proximus invites Noa to dinner with Mae and Trevathan, a human who has allied himself with the apes. Proximus believes Noa to be useful and demands to know what Mae's plan is and how to open the vault, advising Noa that she only wants to benefit herself.
Noa confronts Mae, demanding to know the truth in exchange for his help. Mae reveals she knows a secret entry to the bunker and that she's looking for a book that could bring speech back to humanity. Noa hopes to destroy the bunker following this and lead his clan back home. Noa, Mae, Soona, and Anaya plant gunpowder around a levee in front of the bunker. Trevathan interrupts and plans to warn Proximus, but Mae kills him. The group subsequently heads to the hidden entrance. Mae discovers a reserve of weapons and retrieves her "book", which is actually a deciphering key for a satellite. Meanwhile, the apes discover old picture books depicting humans as the once-dominant species before apes, causing them to grow suspicious of Mae.
As they make their way out of the bunker, the group is confronted by Proximus, who threatens to kill Soona, but Mae fatally shoots the ape holding Soona hostage, Lightning. Proximus agrees to let Noa go if she tells them where the other weapons are. Mae refuses and sets off the gunpowder, flooding the bunker with the apes still inside. As the apes climb their way up, Noa encounters Sylva, and a chase ensues. Noa traps Sylva and watches him drown. When Noa makes it out, he is attacked by Proximus. As Proximus demands Noa to kneel before him, Noa finally masters his father's eagle songs and leads his clan in summoning their eagles. The eagles attack Proximus, causing him to fall to his death.
As the clan returns and rebuilds their home, Mae says farewell to Noa. She explains that humans deserve their chance again as they were originally the dominant species, to which Noa questions how much freedom apes will then have. She travels to a human settlement at a satellite base, delivering the decipher key and allowing her group to re-activate the satellites and successfully contact other humans worldwide. Meanwhile, Noa and Soona are seen looking through a telescope, staring worriedly at an unseen object in the sky. .jpeg)
