This is the first sequel to the popular primate films, and Charlton Heston is back. This time, U.S. astronaut Taylor (Heston) has disappeared while exploring the distant planet that was once ruled by apes. Astronaut Brent (James Franciscus) is sent to rescue him and crash lands on the Planet of the Apes. Taylor's mate Nova (Linda Harrison) rescues Brent and takes him to the ape city where friendly scientists Zira (Kim Hunter) and Cornelius (David Watson) hide them. Adventures abound when they are kidnapped, find Taylor, escape, and then discover the weapon that could prevent the apes from wiping out the world.
