Zack Snyder recently announced that the first teaser trailer for Rebel Moon will debut during GamesCon this Tuesday, and thanks to What's On Netflix, we now have official titles for Parts 1 and 2 of the Justice League director's Seven Samurai-inspired sci-fi epic.
Rebel Moon Part 1: A Child of Fire will debut on December 22, followed by Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver. Though the second film doesn't have an official premiere date, it's rumored to hit the streaming service in April of 2024.
The idea for Rebel Moon began as a Star Wars movie before Snyder realized that he wasn't going to have the type of freedom he felt he needed to tell his space-set saga at Lucasfilm, and decided to develop an original project for Netflix.
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.
