Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A major new twist in Planet of the Apes lore just set the stage to unite its four different cinematic continuities. The move is in its fledgling state, but a new story set just before the events of the 1968 Charlton Heston movie introduces a set of new time travelers who could be the genesis for the 2011 Rise of the Planet of the Apes reboot.

Psychic mutants aren't a new addition to ape lore - the second movie Beneath the Planet of the Apes reveals a cult of skinless humans who worship the Alpha Omega bomb and are capable of creating terrifying illusions with their minds. However, Ivana's less extensively mutated group are a new faction in the franchise.

While the Planet of the Apes franchise has had many cinematic entries, the original story was actually Pierre Boulle's 1963 novel La Planète des Singes , which follows similar narrative beats to the 1968 movie. There was also a TV show and animated series, both in the 1970s, and various comic series.

New Twist Can Unite Planet of the Apes' Multiple Continuities Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes Could Factor into a New Multiverse Close In a series that's all about changing the timeline through time travel, it's always been a little odd that the 2001 and 2011 reboots have no narrative connection to the original. That's especially true in 2024, where every franchise seems set on launching its own multiverse on the flimsiest pretense.
