Since its inception in 1968, the ‘Planet of the Apes’ franchise has captivated audiences with its thought-provoking storytelling and memorable twists. However, the original film’s iconic ending, where astronaut George Taylor realizes he’s been on a post-apocalyptic Earth all along, remains unparalleled in its impact.

With ‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ continuing the rebooted timeline, the pressure is on to deliver a twist that can match, or even surpass, the granddaddy of all ‘Apes’ twists.

Adding to the anticipation, franchise veteran Andy Serkis has teased that ‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ will go in a direction that is set to “blow people’s minds.” While vague, this statement has fueled speculation about a potential game-changing twist in the upcoming film.

However, recreating the original’s twist would be a futile endeavor, as the modern films have already established their continuity on a post-apocalyptic Earth. To truly captivate audiences, ‘Kingdom’ must deliver a fresh, unexpected narrative element that challenges our perceptions in a wholly unique way.

While the temptation to mimic the iconic 1968 twist may be strong, ‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ must tread carefully. Tim Burton’s ill-fated 2001 remake serves as a cautionary tale, reminding us that attempting to outdo the original’s twist can backfire spectacularly.

Instead, the film’s creators must strike a delicate balance, paying homage to the franchise’s legacy while forging new ground. By exploring uncharted territory and delivering a twist that resonates with contemporary audiences, ‘Kingdom’ can cement its place as a worthy successor to the iconic original.

‘Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes’ hits theaters on May 10th, promising a thrilling addition to the beloved sci-fi saga.
