Watch the Planet of the Apes Movies Free: January 2022 Update

• All 3 Planet of the Apes movies are available to rent or purchase on Amazon Video or YouTube Movies.

In a time where classic movies undergo the Hollywood knife on a regular basis, there are a fair few whose reboots are justified. But one reboot that broke the mould is Planet of the Apes. Based off the '60s-born franchise, the reimagined Apes trilogy isn't just one of the best remakes - it's one of the best movie trilogies of all time.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) stars James Franco and Jonathan Lithgow; Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014), which stars Jason Clarke, Keri Russell, and Gary Oldman; and the trilogy-topping War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) stars Woody Harrelson, with Andy Serkis returning for the third and final time as Caesar.

The movies combine ground-breaking special effects with motion-capture performances, and by the time you reach the third film, your eyes will be convinced that there isn't a shred of CGI in sight - in short, everything from the hair on Caesar's head to the imperfections on his snout look like they're actually in front of the camera.

Now, let's find out where you can enjoy the Planet of the Apes trilogy online...

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on Netflix?

You won't find any monkey business on Netflix! But you can't go too wrong with what is still considered the most popular streaming service, though. For $8.99 per month Basic, $13.99 Standard, or $17.99 Premium, you can enjoy a huge volume of TV shows, documentaries, kids content, and more.

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on Hulu?

No signs of apes taking over Hulu, either! But prices for this streaming service currently start at $6.99 per month, or $69.99 for the whole year. For the ad-free version, it's $12.99 per month, $64.99 per month for Hulu + Live TV, or $70.99 for the ad-free Hulu + Live TV.

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on Disney Plus?

Despite now being a Disney IP, those damn dirty apes aren't on Disney+ or STAR! Home to the likes of 'Star Wars', 'Marvel', 'Pixar', National Geographic', ESPN, STAR and so much more, Disney+ is available at the annual membership fee of $79.99, or the monthly cost of $7.99. If you're a fan of even one of these brands, then signing up to Disney+ is definitely worth it, and there aren't any ads, either.

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on Amazon Video?

It looks like Amazon Video is home to talking apes, as you'll find all three movies on here, each available for rent or purchase.

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on HBO Max?

Caesar and his simian friends haven't quite conquered HBO Max. But if you're still interested in the service, it's $14.99 per month, which gives you full access to the entire vault, and is also ad-free, or $9.99 per month with ads. However, the annual versions for both are cheaper, with the ad-free plan at $150 and the ad-supported plan at $100.

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on Peacock?

Peacock is yet another streaming service yet to be considered a "madhouse"! Nevertheless, Peacock Premium costs $4.99 monthly, or $49.99 for the whole year. To go ad-free, it's $9.99 monthly, or $100 for the year.

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on Paramount Plus?

Are the Planet of the Apes Movies on YouTube Movies?

Yes, you can rent or purchase the new Planet of the Apes trilogy on YouTube Movies.

The Planet of the Apes trilogy is one of the most successful and critically-acclaimed reboots ever. And besides its jaw-dropping special effects and motion-capture performances, the most impressive thing is the fact that they aren't technically remakes - they're reimaginings, yet to reach the point of a 'planet of apes'.

But while War for the Planet of the Apes marks the end for Caesar's journey, it doesn't mark the end of the series. In 2017, after the film's release, Disney confirmed that a fourth film in the series was going into production. While there haven't really been any major updates since, director Wes Ball has offered some insight.

In a 2020 interview, he said: "We have a way of staying in the universe that was created before us, but we're also opening ourselves up in being able to do some really cool new stuff. Again, I'm trying to be careful here. I'll say this, for fans of the original three don't worry – you're in good hands."
