Rebel Moon, Zack Snyder’s next Netflix film, is said to be a two-part epic. Following his departure from the DC Extended Universe, Netflix partnered with the famous filmmaker.

With Army of the Dead, Zack Snyder has already established a new movie universe. Still, his love of science fiction and world-building has introduced Rebel Moon to Netflix as another potentially gigantic series.

A Star Wars concept inspires the film that Lucasfilm rejected. It follows Sofia Boutella, who plays a young lady who becomes the face of a rising resistance against the galaxy’s conquerors.

According to a recent rumor from THR, Snyder and Netflix are preparing to break Rebel Moon into two films. The eventual two-part releases were referred to as “two epic features,” by the source.

The production will begin this month and go through November. It is unknown when either portion of Rebel Moon will stream on Netflix. If Rebel Moon‘s two-part debut does well, there’s a potential that Netflix will produce spinoffs.

Snyder’s decision to expand Rebel Moon from a single film to a two-part epic for Netflix is unsurprising. The streaming service is in urgent need of new franchises, and Snyder is notorious for stretching out his films.
