‘How big could it be?’: Two Zack Snyder movies doesn’t begin to cover Netflix’s plans for ‘Rebel Moon’

If you were to ask a certain section of the online sphere what could possibly be better than two Zack Snyder movies, then they’d obviously reply by saying an entire Snyder universe… or SnyderVerse, if you will.

Fortunately for them, Netflix appears to have something very similar in mind for incoming sci-fi blockbuster Rebel Moon. Sure, it isn’t DC, but the prospect of the filmmaker being given creative carte blanche to continue expanding his intergalactic adventures sounds like exactly the sort of thing that would make for an acceptable substitute.

In an interview with Empire, Snyder hinted that his dreams go far beyond a two-part epic that was expanded into a double-feature at the streaming service’s request, which will be music to the ears of his fans.

“When I pitched it to Netflix, the scale was a thing they wanted. They were like, ‘Well, how big could it be? How many movies?’ That made me go, ‘Okay, if we really do this, we can sink our teeth pretty deep into this. We can’t really hit the bottom. The Rebel Moon is not the moon that they’re on. The title was conceptual, but there’s a planet named Vanna, and Vanna is the rebel moon. It’s not even in one shot of this movie!”

Of course, we also heard something very similar about Army of the Dead, which has gained absolutely no forward momentum since spin-off Army of Thieves was released, even though there’s quite literally an animated series that’s been in development for what feels like forever.

Snyder may end up dropping his shiny new toys in favor of even newer and shiner ones, then, but that isn’t something his army of supporters would be entirely against.
