Development
John Paesano was assigned as the composer for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, marking his fourth collaboration with Wes Ball after working on the Maze Runner film trilogy (2014–2018). He is the third composer after Patrick Doyle and Michael Giacchino, who scored the predecessors in the Planet of the Apes reboot film series. Paesano wanted to honor Jerry Goldsmith’s score for the 1968 film and Giacchino’s score for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) and War for the Planet of the Apes (2017), to follow the musical legacy of the franchise and take the score in a new direction where he wanted “to take it to a place where the franchise is headed”.
