Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes has just hit theaters. The film seems to have been liked by a good part of the public, and is also on track to be one of the most successful box office releases so far in 2024. The film’s premiere is being celebrated at Mediaset with a series that offers the opportunity to see on their channels all the installments of the saga, and that includes War for the Planet of the Apes, released in 2017, which included a clear nod to Donkey Kong.

Wesley McCullough (Woody Harrelson), the Alpha-Omega, is known as “Donkey.” In Spanish this was translated as “asses” and the reference was somewhat lost, although around minute 71 and 20 seconds, when we see their ringleader turn around, we can see how He has the word “Donkey” written on his back..

So nothing, we can say that Donkey Kong exists in this very successful saga.

But after suffering unimaginable losses, Caesar wrestles with his darkest instincts and decides to avenge his species. , facing the colonel in an epic battle that will determine the fate of both species… and the future of the planet.”
