🦍 Plot Overview (Unofficial/Leaked Synopsis)

Following the rise of a new ape civilization under the rule of Noa, the young and reluctant leader introduced in Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024), the sequel takes us deeper into a fractured world—one where the balance of power teeters on the edge.

While many apes have embraced peace and coexistence, a splinter faction led by a war-hardened gorilla warlord known as Thane seeks domination over all species—ape and human alike. Meanwhile, whispers of surviving human settlements experimenting with a “cure” to regain lost intelligence have begun to stir panic.

Noa, torn between legacy and leadership, must unite unlikely allies, including a rogue orangutan philosopher and a resourceful human teenager named Lyra, as the future of Earth hangs in the balance.
