Noa, like Caesar, is a chimpanzee with deep-set eyes and a similarly strong presence.

Nevertheless,Owen Teague spoke toEWand clarified that Noa is not meant to be Caesars direct descendant.

Another major similarity between the two is their moral compass.Caesar was known for compassion and strength.

He did not seek war, but was willing to fight when necessary to protect his clan.

Noa displays similar traits, particularly as he begins to grasp the complexities of power.

Noas story is not about continuing Caesars bloodline, but rather about rediscovering his wisdom.

Noa represents the next generation of the evolution of ape society.
