Maze Runner director Wes Ball has been brought on by 20th Century Fox to helm a new Planet of the Apes movie.
The movie was followed by two sequels: Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015) and Maze Runner: The Death Cure (2018).
10 years later, a reboot trilogy beginning with 2011’s Rise of the Planet of the Apes starring James Franco kept the apes alive.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Apes feature will be “one of the first historically storied Fox titles” to be redeveloped since the Disney-Fox merger.
