Zack Snyder is joining up with Netflix once again to produce and direct Rebel Moon, an enormous sci-fi adventure with a Star Wars scope and scale, following the success of Army of the Dead and its several spinoffs in production. When Snyder proposed a version of this to LucasFilm, it was originally intended to be a Star Wars film. Here’s a glance at what we may anticipate from Rebel Moon in the future. Zack Snyder will direct and co-write the picture, reuniting with many of his previous collaborators. Shay Hatten, who co-wrote Army of the Dead, and Kurt Johnstad, who worked on 300 with Snyder, will co-write the script for Rebel Moon.
Release date
Rebel Moon is expected to begin production in 2022, which means it will most likely premiere on Netflix in 2023 or 2024. It’s also worth mentioning that owing to the COVID-19 outbreak, Snyder’s lesser project Horse Latitudes has been delayed in development. Depending on how large of an influence the pandemic is by Rebel Moon’s planned start date, it will undoubtedly have to be included in how the picture goes into production. The bulk of Snyder’s films have been released around March, so Rebel Moon is likely to follow suit.
Storyline
The plot of Rebel Moon is claimed to revolve around a peaceful colony on the fringe of the galaxy that is besieged by an intergalactic dictator known as Belisarius. As a result, the planet’s residents hire a young lady to summon warriors from other worlds to assist them in fending off the approaching onslaught. It’s easy to discern the Seven Samurai impact on Rebel Moon, given Snyder’s allusion to Kurosawa in the film’s announcement. What will be particularly intriguing to see is how the picture appears without its Star Wars connections. At the moment, that’s all we know about the plot, though Shay Hatten, the co-writer of Army of the Dead, and Kurt Johnstad, the co-screenwriter of 300, are reportedly on board. With Snyder directing, viewers can expect plenty of big-scale action scenes and comic book-influenced visuals when Rebel Moon finally arrives on Netflix.
Cast members
Presumably, because production on “Rebel Moon” isn’t set to begin for a long time, neither Zack Snyder nor Netflix has confirmed who will be in the cast. However, it wouldn’t be strange if the director contacted actors with whom he’d previously collaborated on other films to see if they’d be interested in cooperating on a whole new franchise. “I’ve been working on something on the side for so long, it’s far along,” he told THR.
Because Snyder wants to build his brand rather than playing in someone else’s sandbox, he’ll probably hire younger actors in “Rebel Moon,” so that if it’s a hit, they’ll be able to return for several spin-offs, sequels, and prequels. In the words of the filmmaker “It’s a combination of my passion for science fiction and a big adventure. My aim is that this develops into a large IP and a world that can be expanded.”
Will some former Snyder students return for the ride? Ella Purnell was underused in “Army of the Dead,” so if her calendar in 2022 isn’t too full, it’d be wonderful to see her take the lead in “Rebel Moon.”

How long has Rebel Moon been in development?
Rebel Moon was originally a Star Wars concept produced by Zack Snyder about ten years ago. It would be George Lucas’s more evolved version of the world, although it never got off the ground when The Walt Disney Co. acquired Lucasfilm in 2012. Unexpectedly, as we saw years later, a somewhat more mature vision of the world would be just the thing to revive the Mandalorian establishment.
