‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ Gets New Character Posters!! Check It Out!!

Alongside the first trailer for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, we were also given a first look at the character posters for the movie. Highlighted in the posters are Noa, our main character, played by Owen Teague, Nova, played by Freya Allan and Kevin Durand’s villainous Proximus Caesar, the antagonist of the movie, which serves as a sequel to the rebooted Planet of the Apes prequel trilogy.

Hundreds of years following Caesar’s (Andy Serkis) revolutionary impact on ape intelligence, a fresh generation attempts to advance their civilisations, neglecting the lessons from the human downfall. Noa (Teague) must navigate through a world of advancement that remains beyond his comprehension before he can determine the future direction for his ape brethren, while joining a young and mysterious human as the pair work together to try and protect each other while unlocking the key to the future.

The previous trilogy was a massive success as it grossed over $1.6 billion worldwide. Rise of the Planet of the Apes had a total box office of around $481 million, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes smashed this with $710 million, and War for the Planet of the Apes completed the trilogy with around $490 million.
