Appleseed Collection

The Appleseed Collection is a film series set in the 22nd century, following the aftermath of a devastating Third World War that significantly reduced the global population. In this post-war world, international organizations like the Sacred Republic of Munma and Poseidon have emerged to maintain order. The series centers on Deunan Knute and Briareos Hecatonchires, former SWAT members of the LAPD who are recruited to join ESWAT, a specialized unit within the utopian city of Olympus. Olympus is a prominent state where approximately half of the population has undergone bionic augmentation. The collection spans four films released between 1988 and 2014, with a total runtime of 365 minutes and a budget of $10,000,000. The films depict Deunan and Briareos as they work to safeguard Olympus from both external and internal threats. For example, the 2004 film Appleseed and the 2007 film Appleseed: Ex Machina showcase their efforts in protecting the city's security. The total revenue generated by the Appleseed Collection is $14,619,89.
