Planet of the Apes

Planet of the Apes Guía y cronología

A world ruled by apes turns human assumptions about civilization and power against them. Planet of the Apes explores that reversal through different histories, from the original astronaut's arrival to Caesar's rise and the generations after him. The classic films, television versions, Burton reimagining and modern reboot do not form one continuous saga.

The repeated title identifies different productions. Use the year and branch to distinguish the 1968 original, television series and 2001 reimagining.

Overview & recommendation

The original film begins with strangers trying to understand a world whose rules make their own position deeply uncomfortable. The modern saga builds its tension from another direction, asking you to follow Caesar as the balance between humans and apes changes.

Both routes become less inviting if their explanations are handed to you before their beginnings. Choose one and let its consequences unfold. Kingdom then moves the modern story beyond Caesar's own generation, while the television versions and the 2001 film offer other approaches to the premise.

Choose Caesar Saga for a modern character-led route, starting with Rise. Choose the original 1968 film for the earlier cycle and continue it in release order. Compare the other interpretations after finishing the route you chose.
