Zack Snyder’s collaboration with Netflix is the gift that keeps on giving, and he has another promising project on the way. The streaming giant just dropped the first trailer for the upcoming space opera Rebel Moon: Part One, set to be released around Christmas.

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.
