Learn why the new Planet of the Apes movies can't ever connect to the classic films as we explain the sprawling Planet of the Apes timeline. Every time we get a trailer for a new Planet of the Apes movie, people wonder just where the latest film in the venerable series takes place in the Apes timeline. From the Andy Serkis trilogy to the original movies to various other offshoots, this is a franchise that spans thousands of years. And not just that, but it also takes place over a variety of timelines.

Basically, the chronology of the Planet of the Apes movies is a total mess, totally crazy, but also – and this is the most important part – totally awesome. So with the latest film in the series, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, now here, let’s board the spaceship Icarus and blast off as we try to explain… the mixed-up, crazy Planet of the Apes movies timeline.

Ahhhh, where to start, where to start? It’s a complicated question when you’re dealing with a cyclical, if ever-evolving, chronology where there’s no beginning or end. This is time travel, people! So how do you even watch the Planet of the Apes movies in order when the end is the beginning and the beginning is the end?!

The most sensible place to begin for a chronological explanation of the Apes movies would seem to be with the most recent so-called “reboot” series that kicked off in 2011, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. From there we can go to Dawn of, War for, and then delve into the original 1968 Charlton Heston Apes film, which spawned four theatrical sequels (Beneath, Escape From, Conquest of, Battle for) as well as a couple of TV shows. And yes, we will also need to discuss the time Mark Wahlberg went to Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes as well...
