The Planet of the Apes franchise is roaring onward with the release of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. Both heroes and villains are getting new makeovers as the franchise enters unexplored territory. However, the series already has much more history than some fans of recent films might realize. Kingdom will actually be the tenth film in the Planet of the Apes series, and over that time, there have been many great heroic characters, both human and ape.
