20th Century Studios officially announced the film “Planet of the Apes 4”, which won its first image and its official title: “Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes”, which in free translation means “Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes”.
The studio rebooted the franchise in 2011 with Rupert Wyatt's Planet of the Apes: Inception. Matt Reeves took over directing the next two sequels, all three films centered on Caesar (Andy Serkis).
The trilogy turned out to be a huge success, Serkis being acclaimed for his performances, as well as praise for the film's motion capture work. After all the success so far, Disney decided to develop another film in the franchise, after acquiring 20th Century Studios.
Director Wes Ball now takes the lead on this new project, which has been in development over the last few years. The expectation is that “Planet of the Apes 4” will start a new trilogy from Disney and 20th Century, which takes place in the same continuity as the recent reboot.
While details are being kept under wraps, it is known that this new sequel will take place after the end of "Planet of the Apes: War" and Caesar's death. Owen Teague is set to play the new leader of the apes in "Planet of the Apes 4".
Now, in addition to revealing the title of the film, 20th Century Studios has released an image, which is a piece of concept art from the futuristic film. The art confirms that the film will take place many years after the third film in the franchise in the “Planet of the Apes” timeline.
