Trivia
- The film's action takes place approximately 300 years after the events of Matt Reeves's sci-fi action film War for the Planet of the Apes (2017).
- In a government bunker, the apes discover a doll that says the word "mama" — just like the doll that Charlton Heston's character found in the sci-fi film Planet of the Apes (Franklin J. Schaffner, 1967), and this lends weight and credibility to the theory that humans were once the dominant life form.
- As soon as he was cast as Noa, Owen Teague began studying apes at a sanctuary in Florida. He started with chimpanzees, figuring out how the animals spend their time and how they move. He was especially drawn to a chimpanzee named Bentley. According to Teague, it was Bentley who helped him develop the character of Noa, which he then brought to the screen.
- While working on the action scenes of the human hunt on the river, the filmmakers used a technique that had previously been used in James Cameron's sci-fi action film Avatar: The Way of Water (2022). They needed the interaction of the computer-generated ape characters with the water to look as realistic as possible on screen.
