Imagine a space movie like "intergalactic 300." Well, Zack Snyder made it happen with Rebel Moon.
Zack's idea for Rebel Moon started 20 years ago in college. Initially, he thought it could be a Star Wars movie, but things changed.
Instead of Star Wars, Snyder created a brand new space world. The $160-million-plus movie is a mix of old classics like Seven Samurai and Dune.
Rebel Moon promises lots of action and excitement in its two-hour-and-15-minute runtime. It's in theaters on Dec. 15 and on Netflix from Dec. 22.
Part One, called "A Child of Fire," is just the start. Part Two, "The Scargiver," comes to Netflix on April 19, 2024.
The movie begins on a peaceful moon called Veldt. Kora, played by Sofia Boutella, is a hero with a tough past.
Kora was once a soldier for the Motherworld empire, but she turns against them after a tragic incident.
Kora's life changes when her spaceship crashes on Veldt. She decides she's done with violence and wants a peaceful life.
Kora and her friend Gunnar try to save their people. They gather a group of rebels, each with a unique skill.
An evil guy named Admiral Noble threatens their peaceful life on Veldt.
Part Two reveals more about Kora's past, and we find out why she's called the "Scargiver."
Sofia Boutella, who plays Kora, had a tough time understanding and forgiving her character. It adds deep emotions to the story.
Rebel Moon is not just about stunning visuals; it's also a story about heroes dealing with their struggles.
