Zack Snyder seems to have fully embraced the Netflix model. After dealing with nothing but WB drama regarding the release of “Justice League,” the filmmaker has found a creative partnership with Netflix which allows him to create just about anything he wants. A zombie war movie? Here’s “Army of the Dead.” A spinoff of said zombie movie? Have “Army of Thieves.” Now, it appears Netflix is ready to release Snyder’s “Star Wars” idea that got pushed to the wayside years ago, titled “Rebel Moon.” Now, split into two parts, “Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire” is set to arrive next month.
The first film in the two-part epic is said to be about a young woman who pulls together a gang of misfit warriors as they try to defend their home planet from the horrible empire. Snyder has wrangled actors such as Sofia Boutella, Charlie Hunnam, Ray Fisher, Djimon Hounsou, Doona Bae, Staz Nair, Alfonso Herrera, Jena Malone, Stuart Martin, Ed Skrein, Cary Elwes, and Corey Stoll to join the cast of what is surely going to be another blockbuster for the filmmaker.
After the massive success of “Army of the Dead,” it’s clear that Netflix is willing to give a blank check to Zack Snyder, until his rabid fanbase doesn’t show up. And judging by the fact that #RestoreTheSnyderverse still trends fairly regularly, you know the Snyder Faithful are ready to support “Rebel Moon” with their full might.
“Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire” is set to arrive on Netflix on December 22. You can see the trailer for the film below:
