Zack Snyderis ready to take audiences into the new world he’s been working on for the past couple of years, as new images have emerged from his latest project,Rebel Moon. Thanks toVanity Fair, new images from the upcoming blockbuster have been shared online, showcasing the production design ofNetflix’s new space opera. Even if another studio is busy producing stories set in a galaxy far, far away, Snyder has been working on bringing his own style and voice to a story created with an immense scale in mind, featuring multiple planets, vehicles and an emotional journey at its core.
In the images,Sofia Boutellacan be seen in the main role, as Kora is a young woman who wants to see her people liberated froman oppressive forcethat wants to keep its position of power within the galaxy. Before she embarks on a dangerous journey to change the fate of her people, she’ll have to learn a thing or two about the inner workings of her community. The twist for the hero ofRebel Moonis that she used to be a part of the problem, and now that she’s out of the institution, she knows how bad things will get for everyone if the army she used to be a part of isn’t stopped.
Snyder’s desire to explore this dystopian future in deep space came after not being able to join theStar Warsfranchise. The filmmaker didn’t event want to get close to the central story of that series, opting for creating his own original characters. However, when it was clear that his project wouldn’t enter production, he still wanted to turn his ideas into a reality, and that’s howthe concept ofRebel Moonbegan to be formed in his head. Netflix didn’t hold back either, allowing Snyder to bring his epic story to life without many budget restrictions. After all, space battles and new worlds have to look as realistic as possible.
