WithRebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Firepremiering onNetflixthis week, the streaming platform is wasting no time on preparing for the sequel.Entertainment Weeklyhas shared new images fromRebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver, teasing how Kora’s (Sofia Boutella) journey is set to continue after her explosive first adventure. The fight to take the Imperium down isn’t over yet, and Kora’s team will have to achieve the impossible if they want to get rid of the cruel government that has control over the moon of Veldt. Thankfully, the skilled warrior won’t be alone for the ride.
The images take a look at the royal family introduced in the first movie before they were eliminated by a mysterious assassin, withZack Snyderhoping to expand on their backstory through more flashbacks in the upcoming sequel. The mystery behind their deaths played a major part in changing the history of the Motherworld, and it all leads back to Kora and her mission to create a better world. Since Kora was tasked with protecting the young princess Issa (Stella Grace Fitzgerald) before her demise, the case has a strong emotional connection to the protagonist ofRebel Moon.
When it becomes clear that Kora won’t be able to change the world around her alone, she begins to recruit the best soldiers she knows in order to assemble a team. General Titus (Djimon Hounsou) was one of her first choices, and considering how both of them used to work for the Imperium, they both understand why it’s so important to give everyone a chance to fight for their freedom. After all, working for the organization gave them knowledge other members of the resistance wouldn’t be able to get anywhere else, setting the stage fora massive confrontationbetween the Imperium and the people it promised to protect.

If Kora’s introduction and its sequel turn out to be hits for Netflix, other projects set in the same universe could enter development. There’s a reason why Snyder cast the youngFra Freeas the ruler of the Motherworld, and it happened because it offers the filmmaker the possibility to continuetelling stories surrounding the characterin the future.
