Snyder is no stranger to putting his twist on the popular IPs, from Watchmen to Justice League. He was asked if he’d consider tackling a pre-existing franchise during a recent interview with The Atlantic, and he made quite an interesting choice.

“It’d be cool to see, like, 20-year-old James Bond. The humble roots that he comes from. Whatever trauma of youth that makes you be able to be James Bond. There has to be something there,” said Snyder, who’s currently busy promoting his Netflix space epic Rebel Moon.

The James Bond franchise is in dire need of a reboot after Daniel Craig’s tenure as 007 came to an end with the release of No Time to Die in 2021. The long-running producer Barbara Broccoli said that the next film won’t start filming until “at least” 2024 because they have “a big road ahead” as they try to find a new James Bond and modernize the franchise.

Rebel Moon: Part One: A Child of Fire centers on Kora (Sofia Boutella), a stranger with a mysterious past, who tries to start a new life in a peaceful farming village. She becomes their only hope for survival and must assemble a small team of fighters looking for redemption, who are the only ones capable of standing up to the oppressive forces of the Motherworld.

In addition to Boutella, the cast of Rebel Moon will also include Michiel Huisman as a tenderhearted farmer Gunnar, Djimon Hounsou as legendary commander General Titus, Charlie Hunnam as starship pilot Kai, Staz Nair as former nobleman Tarak, Doona Bae as master swordswoman Nemesis, and Jena Malone as a lethal spider warrior Harmada.

Ed Skrein, Fra Fee, Ray Fisher, and Cleopatra Coleman will join them in the villain roles, alongside Anthony Hopkins as the voice of the mechanical knight Jimmy.

Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire will get a limited theatrical release on December 15 before heading to Netflix a week later, and it will be followed by a sequel Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver next year.

According to Netflix’s official synopsis, this “epic science-fantasy event” will take us to a peaceful colony on the edge of a galaxy, where a mysterious stranger Kora (Sofia Boutella) must stand up against the armies of a tyrannical ruling force.

She must find trained fighters and assemble a small band of warriors — outsiders, insurgents, peasants, and orphans of war from different worlds who share a need for redemption and revenge – in an attempt to defeat the common enemy.

In addition to Boutella in the lead role, this film will feature an impressive ensemble cast, which includes Charlie Hunnam, Michiel Huisman, Djimon Hounsou, Doona Bae, Ray Fisher, Cleopatra Coleman, Jena Malone, Fra Fee, Ed Skrein, and Anthony Hopkins.

Rebel Moon: Part One – A Child of Fire will premiere on Netflix on December 22, and the streamer is planning to give it a limited theatrical release. The second installment Rebel Moon: The Scargiver will arrive on Netflix on April 19, 2024.

The film’s set prior to the events of Army of the Dead and it will take place during the early stages of the zombie outbreak, centering around Dieter. Matthias Schweighöfer will be returning as the German safecracker Dieter and he appears alongside an odd group of bandits that include Nathalie Emmanue, Ruby O. Fee, Guz Khan, and Jonathan Cohen.

Schweighöfer is directing the prequel and Snyder and his wife Deborah are producing. The script was penned by Shay Hatten from an original story co-written by Snyder and Hatten.

Army of the Dead starred Dave Bautista, Ella Purnell, Omari Hardwick, and Schweighöfer. It debuted on Netflix and in select theaters in May 2021. The film was a spiritual sequel to Snyder’s feature film debut, 2004’s Dawn of the Dead and it featured a group of people who plan a Las Vegas casino heist during a zombie apocalypse.

The film will be coming to Netflix in 2021. Check out the first look photos for Army of Thieves.

Starring Dave Bautista as Scott Ward, a former zombie war hero who lives in the outskirts of Las Vegas and flips burgers for a living. His life starts to change after a casino boss (Hiroyuki Sanada) offers him $50 million to break into a zombie-infested quarantine zone to get $200 million that’s sitting in a vault beneath the Strip. He only has 32 hours to do it before the government nukes the city. Ward hopes the money will help him reconcile with his estranged daughter (Ella Purnell), so he gets together a ragtag team of experts for the heist.

Co-starring in the film are Ana De La Reguera, Omari Hardwick, Tig Notaro, Raúl Castillo, Samantha Win, Nora Arnezeder, Theo Rossi Garret Dillahunt, Matthias Schweighöfer, Huma S. Qureshi, Richard Cetrone, and Michael Cassidy co-star.

Snyder is directing from a script he wrote with Shay Hatten and Joby Harold, based on a story by Snyder. Snyder produced the film with Deborah Snyder and Wesley Coller.

Army of the Dead will be opened in theaters on May 14 with the film debuting on Netflix a week later. Check out the trailer below.

The film follows a group of mercenaries who attempt a Las Vegas casino heist while a zombie outbreak is happening.

A prequel film and anime series to expand Army of the Dead into a franchise, are in development with Matthias Schweighöfer set to direct and star in the prequel.

In the trailer, there’s an epic battle between the Justice League and a new villain, big bad Darkseid (Ray Porter), who was supposed to be the main villain of the first cut of the film but wasn’t included in the final cut. The clip also shows a conversation between Jared Leto’s Joker and Ben Affleck’s Batman.

“We live in a society where honor is a distant memory,” The Joker says. “Isn’t that right, Batman?”

The film has Batman, Superman, (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), The Flash (Ezra Miller), and Cyborg (Ray Fisher) teaming to protect the world from the villains—Darkseid, Steppenwolf (Ciarán Hinds), and DeSaad (Peter Guinness), who want to destroy the planet.

The movie is a result of years of grassroots campaigns to get Warner Bros. to #ReleasetheSnyderCut after Snyder left Justice League in early 2017 to recover from a family tragedy as well as creative differences. The studio brought in Joss Whedon, director of Marvel Studios’ The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron, to re-write and re-shoot the film.

Zack Snyder’s Justice League debuts on HBO Max on March 18. Watch the trailer below.

The director has confirmed this during a panel at Justice Con, an event dedicated to Justice League. During the panel, he shared some details on the movie, including a clip showing Superman’s black suit. “I will tell you guys, at Fandome there will be more footage so you can look forward to a bigger meal, if you will. You don’t have to watch just the same three shots over and over again… That clip [the black suit Superman clip] is more for fans…it’s the realization of an idea.”

Although Snyder directed Batman v. Superman and Man of Steel and is still credited with directing Justice League, the end result is very different from his vision. He left Justice League unfinished and Joss Whedon took over the helm for extensive rewrites and reshoots. The end result met with disappointment from critics and audiences alike. 

This resulted in a call to release Snyder’s cut—which is due to happen next year on HBO.

Fans have been campaigning for years for DC Film’s Justice League to offer Zack Snyder’s cut of the film which saw Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, The Flash, Cyborg, and Superman share the same screen.

Snyder made the news on Wednesday during a live Q&A following a virtual screening of his Henry Cavill-led Superman film Man of Steel.

Snyder completed most of the work on Justice League before having to step away from post-production after a family tragedy. Warner Bros brought in Joss Whedon, helmer of The Avengers, to finish the project and many believe that Snyder envisioned a darker take on the film.

The film was reported to budget at $300 million and it grossed over $650 million worldwide, but was not popular among critics and was perceived as a miss.

#ReleaseTheSnyderCut was started by fans online and in November 2019, Wonder Woman star, Gal Gadot, kicked the campaign into overdrive by tweeting the hashtag with a grayscale still from the film and Affleck, Snyder, and Jason Momoa shortly followed.

The Russian-American author’s most famous novel, The Fountainhead, is expected to get its cinematic treatment sooner than we think.

Whilst the 1943 book was made into a film by Warner Bros. in 1949, Superman VS Batman: Dawn of Justice director, Zack Snyder, announced in 2016 that he would be producing his own version.

It is believed that the 52-year-old would be making The Last Photograph, about a war photographer in Afghanistan, as his next project, but that appears to have changed according to a fan question on social media site, Vero.

When asked what his next project would be, Snyder answered with The Fountainhead.
