The trailer doesn’t give away the plot of this movie but is enough to make Zack Snyder fans mark their calendar for the release date of Rebel Moon.
After the official trailer for Rebel Moon, a behind-the-scenes clip for the movie was also released giving us an insight into how big this movie is going to be. The sets, the atmosphere, and the way you can see all the cinematographers and actors putting in their maximum effort kind of guarantees that this movie is going to be worth the hype.
Zack Snyder is known for creating stories with a grand plot and complex storylines including a dark and gritty atmosphere being beautifully portrayed. Rebel Moon, from the looks of its trailer, seems to incorporate all these signature styles. According to the synopsis given to us by Netflix, Rebel Moon will revolve around a peaceful colony of people who are threatened by an invasion at the hands of Regent Balisarius. A mysterious girl named Kora is chosen to go to different settlements and look for warriors who lead their last stand against this threat.
The lead role ofKorain Rebel Moon will be played bySofia Boutellawho will be tasked with recruiting a team of warriors to take a stand against the invasion of Regent Balisarius. The character ofJC1453, a sentient mechanized robot who was once the guardian of the king, will be voiced byAnthony Hopkins.As per Snyder, this character will be like a wild card on a journey of self-discovery. Also, he has indicated the inclusion of Arthurian elements in Rebel Moon by mentioning that JC1435’s character will be like Launcelot’s. Other members of the cast include the following:
If we talk about Zack Snyder, he is popular for creating movies that are as ambitious as it gets. But is it a Zack Snyder movie if it doesn’t cross the lines of ambition? Back in June, long before even the trailer of Rebel Moon was released, Zack Snyder confirmed that there was going to be an extended director’s cut for Rebel Moon.
He said that the one releasing on Netflix in December is going to be a PG-13 version of the movie which “anyone can enjoy and watch”. Meanwhile, the Rebel Moon director’s cut aka Snydercut is going to be strictly for adult audiences only.
The chairman of Netflix Scott Stuber also raised a point that on the streaming platform, movies that are less than the 2-hour mark usually do better with the statement. He said, “On the service, under-two-hour movies really do better for some reason, even though you’ll binge-watch a series of eight episodes.” To this Zack Snyder said that if he cut down the movie to two hours, it would lose its essence and all its character. As a result, Zack was given the green light to split the story into two movies, thus, Rebel Moon was turned into a saga.
Since the announcement of Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon, the one question on everyone’s mind is – Is the Rebel Moon movie based on a book? The short answer to that is, No, Rebel Moon is not based on a book. However, according to Snyder himself, Rebel Moonwill be adapted into a novel serieswith the same name but in much more detail.
