The uneasy peace between humanity and apes has collapsed.
Decades of war, viral mutations, and ecological decay have turned the planet into a dying battlefield. The last human governments have fallen, replaced by warring city-states and military outposts.
The apes, now more advanced than ever, have organized under various militant leaders — each interpreting Caesar’s old teachings differently. While some seek unity, others crave conquest.
At the heart of humanity’s defense lies one final stronghold: Fort Haven, the last base of the U.S. Army, commanded by Colonel James Gerady (Kurt Russell).
Deep within its underground labs works Dr. Josh Chan (Daniel Henney), a brilliant biogeneticist obsessed with creating peace through science. His final experiment — Project Z.E.P. — will decide the planet’s fate.
