In the video that Netflix has released presenting the films that will arrive on the platform this 2023, we discover images of blockbusters we have had our eyes on for some time. One of them is Zack Snyder’s new movie, ‘Rebel Moon’.
Snyder, known for directing films such as ‘300’, ‘Justice League’, ‘Watchmen’ or ‘The Man of Steel’, is now leaping into space to create his own galactic adventure ‘Star Wars’.
The director himself echoed the promotional video from Netflix on his Twitter account, but the news does not end there and the release date has also been announced: on December 22nd.
In this other tweet from Snyder you can see Kora, the main characterplayed by Sofia Boutella. Kora is the hero who intends to keep her world safe in the fight against the tyrant Balisarius. To do this, she will try to recruit an entire army with the help of her neighboring planets. ‘Rebel Moon’ is coming exclusively to the streaming platform and it is not known if it will have a limited theatrical release.

To date, only the concept art was known, an image that Snyder himself shared in one of the makeup and casting tests, where Anthony Hopkins participates as the voice of the battle robot Jimmy. Other cast members include: Charlie Hunnam, Michiel Huisman, Cary Elwes, Corey Stoll, Jena Malone, Ed Skrein, Djmon Hounsou, Alfonso Herrera, Dominic Burgess, Ray Fisher, Mark Steger, Max Deacon.
The plan for ‘Rebel Moon’
‘Rebel Moon’ is a universe that has long been in Snyder’s head, with all the details that this implies: “We have to paint every corner. I’ve been making plans, constantly drawing and really cultivating your fertile ground to make this world feel fully realized”said the creator himself. As reported by CinemaBlend, Snyder came to pitch the project to Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy before the director began his Netflix journey with ‘Army of the Dead’. The universe of ‘Rebel Moon’ should be told, in principle, through two movies, but we will probably have to wait for the launch of the first one next Christmas to find out the future of this, in principle, promising franchise.
