With Zack Snyder working on his magnum opus, it seems that he got a pretty sweet deal from Netflix for his story. In an interview, theMan of Steeldirector stated that his upcoming movieRebel Moonwill expand far beyond just the two movies that were originally planned.
“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.’”
Zack Snyder’sRebel Moonis set to release on 22nd December 2023 on Netflix around the world.
