The rebootPlanet of the Apesfranchise is unique from its predecessors.
Arguably, the reboot movies could be considered prequels to the original franchise.
Unfortunately, this may not happen soon.
Therefore,Kingdom of the Planet of the Apeswas approximately set in 2328.
InKingdom of the Planet of the Apes,there is an overwhelming amount of greenery and nature.
Clans like Proximus Caesar’s harm other ape groups for power.
Despite this, he has a rather large population of apes living with him.
This key in of civilization could eventually lead to something like Ape City.
Thus, the next movie will have to move more slowly.
Set several years after the events of War for the Planet of the Apes, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is the next installment in the Apes saga. Ape clans have taken up residence in the oasis that Caesar sought to colonize, but humans have reverted to their animalistic nature in their absence. Now battling between enslavement and freedom, outliers in the Ape clans will take sides in a newly burgeoning society.
Theend ofKingdom of the Planet of the Apesalso hints at an upcoming conflict between the apes and the humans.
It definitely would not make sense to skip over that in favor of connecting the film series' timelines.
Therefore, connecting the timelines doesn’t even need to happen.
