Planet of the apes : Caesar's story

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the franchise, this illustrated life story recounts the journey of Caesar, the remarkable leader of the apes, as narrated by Maurice, his closest friend. Following the events of War for the Planet of the Apes, Caesar's tribe finds refuge from the remaining humans who threaten their existence, but Caesar dies before witnessing their prosperity. In honor of Caesar, Maurice decides to document his friend's life for Caesar's son, Cornelius, to ensure he understands the bravery and uniqueness of his father. This chronicle details Caesar's early days under scientist Will Rodman, his life in the Muir Woods colony post-Simian Flu outbreak, and his interactions with Malcolm, Ellie, and the dangerous Koba. It also covers the significant events between Rise and Dawn, as well as Dawn and War for the Planet of the Apes. Alongside the narrative, Maurice shares personal reflections on his time with Caesar, complemented by insights from other key apes who knew him. The result is a heartfelt tribute to the new trilogy and the franchise's legacy. TM & © 2018 Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation. All rights reserved.
