At Gamescom in Germany, director Zack Snyder took to the stage to reveal the trailer for his two-part sci-fi action saga, Rebel Moon. Snyder filled the teaser with his traditional visual flair and operatic flavor. While on stage, Snyder mentioned that his film drew inspiration from “getting the team together movies” like The Dirty Dozen. Not to mention the look and feel of the science-fantasy magazine Heavy Metal. You can check out the first teaser trailer for Rebel Moon, as well as read the official synopsis, down below:
From Zack Snyder, the filmmaker behind 300, Man of Steel, and Army of the Dead, comes Rebel Moon, an epic science-fantasy event decades in the making. When a peaceful colony on the edge of a galaxy finds itself threatened by the armies of a tyrannical ruling force, Kora (Sofia Boutella), a mysterious stranger living among the villagers, becomes their best hope for survival. Tasked with finding trained fighters who will unite with her in making an impossible stand against the Mother World, Kora assembles a small band of warriors — outsiders, insurgents, peasants and orphans of war from different worlds who share a common need for redemption and revenge. As the shadow of an entire Realm bears down on the unlikeliest of moons, a battle over the fate of a galaxy is waged, and in the process, a new army of heroes is formed.
Rebel Moon began its life when Snyder was considering making a Star Wars film a few years ago. Eventually, however, it became its own thing. However, there do appear to be lightsaber-type weapons, showing the Star Wars influence. Also, Snyder seems to be a big fan of ’90s rockers Jane’s Addiction. One can hear samples of the iconic band’s song “Three Days” throughout the teaser trailer for Rebel Moon. We like it too.
Rebel Moon has an all-star cast, which includes names like Sofia Boutella, Djimon Hounsou, Ed Skrein, Michiel Huisman, Doona Bae, and Ray Fisher. It also stars Charlie Hunnam and Anthony Hopkins as the voice of ‘Jimmy.’ Rounding out the cast are Staz Nair, Fra Fee, Cleopatra Coleman, Stuart Martin, Ingvar Eggert Sigurðsson, Alfonso Herrera, Cary Elwes, Rhian Rees, E. Duffy, Jena Malone, Sky Yang, Charlotte Maggi, and Corey Stoll. We can’t wait to see them in even more action when the full trailer for Rebel Moon drops in the future.
Rebel Moon: Part One – A Child of Fire hits Netflix on December 22, 2023. Rebel Moon: Part Two, The Scargiver, hits the streamer on April 19, 2024.
