Zack Snyder, fresh off his streaming hit with 2021’s Justice League, aims to create another epic. This time, he teams with Netflix for Rebel Moon. And if these first-look images are anything to go off of, we are in for a space epic.
Snyder took to his Twitter account to release the first official images from Rebel Moon; he dropped a few behind-the-scenes shots and the first look at Djimon Hounsou’s character. Check out the tweet below…

Rebel Moon is “set in a peaceful colony on the edge of the galaxy that finds itself threatened by the armies of the tyrannical Regent Balisarius. They dispatch a young woman with a mysterious past to seek out warriors from neighboring planets to help them take a stand against the Tyrant.”
Sofia Boutella is leading the ensemble cast, which also includes Cary Elwes, Corey Stoll, Charlie Hunnam, Djimon Hounsou, Doona Bae, Ray Fisher, Rupert Friend, and Stuart Martin.

Snyder has penned the script for Rebel Moon alongside longtime collaborators Shay Hatten and Kurt Johnstad, with who he wrote Army of the Dead and 300, respectively. Synder will also produce the film with his producing partner and wife, Deborah Snyder, and Wesley Coller via the trio’s The Stone Quarry production banner. Eric Newman of Grand Electric is also producing. Production is currently underway and is expected to last until November.
