Be on the lookout for those dirty apes! The complete Planet of the Apes film series is now available on Hulu. The franchise became available on the streamer just days before the latest movie, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, arrives in theaters on May 10.

Based on the French novel, La Planète des singes, the Planet of the Apes series is set in a version of our world where apes have reached near-human intelligence, can speak, and have become the dominate species on the planet. The first movie, starring Charlton Heston, debuted in 1968 to great success. Four sequels soon followed in the early ‘70s, Tim Burton directed his vision of the series nearly 30 years later, and then the series was rebooted in 2011.

All nine films will be available on Hulu, including Planet of the Apes, Beneath the Planet of the Apes, Escape from the Planet of the Apes, Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, Battle for the Planet of the Apes, Planet of the Apes (2001), Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, and War for the Planet of the Apes.

The tenth movie, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, is the fourth movie in the Apes reboot series and is set several years after Caesar’s reign. A young ape starts to question what he’s been told about the world’s history and considers making choices that would change the future for both apes and humans. In the trailer, young Noa is unsettled by the behavior of the ape leader and his quest to conquer and gain more power. Witnessing how the humans are being hunted, Noa befriends a young woman in the hope of building a better future.
