From Excitement to Mockery, Zack Snyder Manages to Unleash It All in Fans With His New Animated Netflix Project ‘Twilight of the Gods'

Published 08/21/2024, 9:20 PM EDT

The best things in Hollywood come with the ability to divide the masses into two, blue eyes, and blue eyes, or so the tale goes. This is especially true in the case of Zack Snyder, who has had quite the reverse effect ever since he snagged his lifetime opportunity with Superman. As the director returned to Netflix, also known as the home for the underrated, one assumed that his days of celebration were right around the corner, but safe to say it was not 'Snyder Cut'.

After the release of not one but two parts of Rebel Moon, with each unable to maintain their place in Netflix's Top 10, Zack Snyder has switched lanes to the animated side of things as the streamer announced the release of Twilight of the Gods. Inspired by Norse Mythology, the series promises blood and thunder. However, some fans might have already had enough of Zack Snyder this season.

However, as the director moved to Netflix, and the Rebels failed to find a place on the Earth, moon, and Netflix's top charts, it became clear that there was more to this case.

While Zack Snyder is taking up the spotlight as the director of Twilight of the Gods, the series also features the talented voices of Sylvia Hoeks, Stuart Martin, John Nobel, Paterson Joseph, and more. Owing to the inspiration borrowed from Norse Mythology, the project allows Snyder to present his Thor and Loki, already booking many fans on September 19. However, others who have gone through this one too many times already requested the Director's Cut.

Devoted fans of Snyder chose to highlight the good points of the project and promised to be seated and give the controversialist another chance.

In any case, it will leave him with four or six chances in the Rebel Moon franchise.
