'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes' Moves Release Date to May 10th

The move avoids competition with other major releases and marks the franchise's first IMAX screenings.

The release date for 'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes' has been moved up from May 24th to May 10th, avoiding competition with 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga' and 'The Garfield Movie' during the crowded Memorial Day weekend.
The new release date means 'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes' will have more IMAX screenings, marking the first time an 'Apes' movie will be shown in this format.
The film is set 300 years in the future, following a new civilization of apes, monkeys, gorillas, orangutans, and other primates.
Kevin Durand's character, Proximus, serves as the antagonist and has adopted the name 'Caesar' to demonstrate his enlightenment and push for the evolution of apes.
The film stars Owen Teague, Freya Allan, Kevin Durand, Peter Macon, and William H. Macy.
