Following the reveal of the trailer for Netflix‘s Rebel Moon, the streaming giant announced that it will also be releasing another Zack Snyder director’s cut. Different from his cut of the Justice League, the special cut is of the epic space sci-fi is meant to give fans more insight into the plotline.
In an interview with Tudum Snyder said, “The director’s cut is close to an hour of extra content, so I think it’s a legitimate extended universe version. You really get to see a lot. It’s just more painted-in all the way.” He added, “The director’s [cut] is a settle-in deep dive, which I have notoriously done throughout my career. I don’t know how I got into this director’s cut thing, but what I will say about it is that, for me, the director’s cuts have always been something I had to fight for in the past and nobody wanted it. It was this bastard child that I was always trying to put together because they felt like there was a deeper version.” Snyder also explained that “with Netflix, we shot scenes just for the director’s cut. So in that way, it’s really a revelation because it gives that second kick at the can for big fans, like a real discovery that they would not [otherwise] get. I’m really excited about it!”
Rebel Moon is salted to be a two-part film with the first part, A Child of Fire set to stream on Netflix on December 22 while the second part The Scargiver will release on April 19, 2024.
