It just seems so perfect.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) is a modified Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972), each of which are my favorite in the series.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) & War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) are a much better version of Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973).

By all accounts Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024) is going to cover the history of humans first like in Planet of the Apes (1968) but I expect also Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970), but maybe that'll be a second film. Although how amazing would it be if this film ends with a spaceship crash landing.

In either case a retelling of Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971) (actually, that is my favorite) is just sitting there. It would work so well. The celebrity aspect, the science vs political aspect, the "human" rights aspect.
