Which order is right for you
Watching Planet of the Apes in order
The modern Planet of the Apes films tell one continuous forward-moving story, so release order and chronological order are identical. Start with Rise and follow Caesar's arc straight through to Kingdom. Watch in release order.
Release order follows the real-world dates the films came out. It is usually the safest choice for a first watch, because every reveal, cameo, and callback lands the way audiences experienced it at the time.
Planet of the Apes (Reboot Era) is one of the straightforward ones. The story moves forward with each release, so the chronological timeline and the release timeline are the same list. Start at the top and work down.
