Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is already smashing through a major box office milestone. Taking place generations after Caesar’s death, Kingdom follows Owen Teague’s Noa as he tries to survive the destruction of his clan. During his journey, Noa meets a human in Freya Allan’s Mae and discovers that humanity’s downfall was not entirely complete. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes‘ reviews have been extraordinary, and the movie enjoyed a strong opening weekend that saw it bring in a domestic total of $58.5 million.
Kingdom‘s second weekend has been equally exceptional. According to a report by Deadline, the latest Planet of the Apes movie is expected to earn between $23.5 million and $25 million through its sophomore weekend. That marks a decline between 57% and 60%. If it can achieve $25 million, Kingdom would cross the $100 million domestic milestone, which is an impressive take in an increasingly tumultuous 2024 box office.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
Set several years after the events of War for the Planet of the Apes, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is the next installment in the Apes saga. Ape clans have taken up residence in the oasis that Caesar sought to colonize, but humans have reverted to their animalistic nature in their absence. Now battling between enslavement and freedom, outliers in the Ape clans will take sides in a newly burgeoning society.
