Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes gets home release date but not on Disney Plus

by

As a long-time fan of the Planet of the Apes franchise, I was thrilled to learn that a new installment, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, was in production. I eagerly anticipated its release and marked my calendar for its premiere on Disney Plus, as I have been a loyal subscriber for years.

An unexpectedly early release: One of the most popular movies of early spring 2024 will hit small screens before planned, but disappointingly, it won’t be available on Disney Plus for fans to watch.

Based on news sources, the premiere of “Kingdom of the Apes on Planet” takes place on Hulu starting August 2nd. If you’re among those with a Disney Plus bundle, this isn’t much of an issue. However, for everyone else, they’ll need to wait for the digital version’s release towards the end of the month.

The movie “Planet” has generated approximately $376 million in revenue worldwide since its initial release in cinemas. While this isn’t an extraordinary amount, it represents a successful revival of the franchise. Critics generally praised the film, and it is expected to perform well on streaming platforms like Hulu. Additionally, it is likely to be popular as a digital rental once it becomes available.

As a passionate gamer and an eager moviegoer, I’m thrilled to share some good news! If you can’t wait until August 2nd to watch the latest blockbuster, fear not! Digital platforms like Fandango Now and Apple TV have got you covered. You can now purchase the film for $19.99 and enjoy it from the comfort of your own home. Unfortunately, rental options aren’t available just yet. However, keep an eye out for hard copy purchases once the movie is released on Blu-Ray. Happy gaming and happy watching!

Featuring Owen Teague, Freya Allen, and Kevin Durand in leading roles, this film is helmed by Wes Ball. The story unfolds in a future era, long after Caesar’s demise as depicted in the initial reboots that explored humanity’s eventual downfall before being ruled by apes.

The response to the series has been strong enough to guarantee the production of at least three more films in this new sequence, which will carry on the narrative. In time, we may reach the destination of the initial films: a world ruled by apes, where humans are hunted, and Charlton Heston finds himself stranded.
