What's left behind the scenes
- The underground council chamber of the mutant tribe used several modified sets from Gene Kelly's comedy "Hello, Dolly!", which was released a year earlier.
- The role of John Brent was considered for Burt Reynolds, but James Franciscus was eventually cast due to his physical resemblance to Charlton Heston (1923-2008), who played Taylor in "Planet of the Apes" (Franklin Schaffner, 1968).
- Don Medford (1917-2012) was initially appointed as the film's director, but he quit when the film's budget was halved.
- Due to the financial constraints faced by the filmmakers, some of the extras wear monkey masks instead of makeup.
- The original plot featured a child – half-human, half-monkey. The producers decided to remove him – to avoid confusing viewers and risking a G rating (all ages admitted).
- Roddy McDowall, who played Cornelius in the first film of the franchise, was unable to participate in the filming of this sequel. At that time, he was in Scotland filming "Tam-Lin" (1970).
- From the cast of "Planet of the Apes," only Charlton Heston (George Taylor), Kim Hunter (Zira), Maurice Evans (Dr. Zaius), and Linda Harrison (Nova) reprised their roles in this film.
- The actual New York City subway station "Queensboro Plaza" is located above ground. The nearby "Queens Plaza" station is underground.
- Filming took place on Prince Edward Island (one of Canada's Maritime Provinces) and in New Milford, Connecticut, USA.
- Natalie Trundie's first appearance in the *Planet of the Apes* franchise films. Trundie and Norman Burton (1923-2003) were the only actors to play both a human and an ape.
- Charlton Heston did not want to return to play his character from the first film in the franchise. He agreed only on the condition that all scenes with him would be shot in two weeks. He also insisted that his character die. By agreement with the film's authors, he disappears at the very beginning of the film and reappears at the end to die.
