Turns out the recent report that claimed the new Planet of the Apes film will be a reboot, was INCORRECT.
The director took to Twitter to settle the news and confirms that it will be a continuation.
Caesar's legacy lives on.
Edit: for those asking if there will be humans left? Of course there will be, they just won't talk considering the new lore.
If I had to take a guess, this is where the enslavement of humans begins. The turn of the tide, Ape rulers.
