  • Wes Ball (The Maze Runner), director of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, will be the first to admit that helming the reboot for the Planet of the Apes franchise was a “really, really difficult movie to make.” The cinematic Apes saga has dominated the box office since the ‘60s, and into the 2010s with Caesar’s trilogy, and with so much history to contend with, Ball and writer Josh Friedman (Apple TV’s Foundation) had to find their way into the timeline that both honored the stories that came before and paved the way for a future.
    In Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, generations after the death of Caesar (Andy Serkis), one young ape’s journey of discovery is about to begin. Through our “guide,” a young ape called Noa, played by Owen Teague (2017’s It), we learn that everything Caesar fought for has become the foundation for what’s transpired since, whether revered or misinterpreted, and humans have since fallen into the shadows. Noa must reckon with everything he’s ever known as apes like Proximus Caesar (Kevin Durand) fight for control, and devout followers like Raka (Peter Macon) preach Caesar’s original values.
    With Kingdom hitting theaters this week, our own Perri Nemiroff was able to sit down with Ball to pick his brain about where one even begins when approaching a franchise like this one. From concept art to casting, we get a peek behind the scenes of one of this year’s biggest blockbusters as Nemiroff and Ball discuss his approach to the storyline, the “whole new frontier” they explored with Wētā Workshop to bring this post-climate change world to life, and the future of the PoTA franchise.

    Saw Kingdom last night. My sincere congratulations to Wes Ball for this excellent and worthy entry into the world of Planet of the Apes. Extra credit for all those water scenes that didn't require the actors to risk their lives ❤

    Wes is such a humble guy. He is always giving credit to the teams that he works with, and is always making it a point to mention that these kinds of films are possible with the help of a huge group of talented crew/artists.

    Honestly crazy how they were able to endear us to these characters with only a few minutes of screentime, great character work and performances all around. Go see this movie, you will care about what happens to these characters, if nothing else.

    I’d honestly never heard of Wes ball before this movie. And I was beyond impressed seeing the film! Only his 4th film and he’s making movies on the same scope as the greats. “We will watch your career with great interest” as palpatine would say. Super stoked for whatever this guy makes in the future.

    Proxima Caesar is like Thanos!! He is always right . But nobody understand him just because he is brutal. Best movie in the last 3 years after Avengers.
