Zack Snyder's 'Rebel Moon' To Release As Two Films, Including A Director's Cut

Los Angeles, June 7 - Filmmaker Zack Snyder is currently working on his next film Rebel Moon, an epic space adventure about a young woman who is trying to save her community from imminent destruction. The movie, boasting a solid cast, will hit Netflix on December 22 this year.

"Rebel Moon" is the most anticipated Netflix film and the good news is, Snyder will split it into two parts, along with two cuts (including a director's cut). During a recent interview with Vanity Fair, the "Justice League" director reveals his plans to make two versions of the movie.



"The first version of Rebel Moon to hit screens will be a fantasy adventure that anyone can enjoy and watch. The later cut will be strictly for adults. I think for fans of mine and people who are ready to take a deeper, harder dive, that'll be fun for them", he said.

Meanwhile, the movie will also have its sequel since there might not be enough time to tell the whole story in a single movie. The second part, however, won't be released too long after the first part (December 22). Just like its predecessor, the sequel will also come with an alternate cut meant to be seen by an adult audience.

The release date for the second part is not revealed yet. "It won't be long after. Netflix can do things that a traditional studio can't do as far as how close together the movies are released", the filmmaker added.



"Rebel Moon", which costs $166 million to make, follows a woman, Kora (Sofia Boutella) with a mysterious past who is sent out by a peaceful colony on the edge of the galaxy to find warriors after the society is threatened by the armies of the tyrant.

The film features an ensemble cast that includes Sofia Boutella, Charlie Hunnam, Ray Fisher, Djimon Hounsou, Jena Malone, Corey Stoll, Ed Skrein, Cleopatra Coleman, Fra Fee, Cary Elwes, and Anthony Hopkins in key roles.
