Set on the agricultural moon of Veldt, the story follows the Imperium's expansion to Veldt in search of food and recruits
Filmmaker Zack Snyder shared a sneak peek of his upcoming sci-fi film, Rebel Moon, at Netflix's TUDUM event.
Rebel Moon hopes to kickstart a new sci-fi franchise and is the first of two planned films. Set on the agricultural moon of Veldt, which is part of a vast galaxy governed by the powerful Imperium, the story follows the Imperium's expansion to Veldt in search of food and recruits.
The threatened natives, led by Kora (portrayed by Sofia
Boutella), who has a personal history with the Imperium, refuse to negotiate
and instead assemble a group of fighters to resist.
However,
maintaining alliances proves challenging.
The star-studded cast
of the feature includes Charlie Hunnam, Michiel Huisman, Djimon Hounsou,
Staz Nair, Doona Bae, Ray Fisher, Cleopatra Coleman, E. Duffy, Jena Malone,
Anthony Hopkins, Fra Fee, and Ed Skrein.
Rebel Moon is set to
premiere on Netflix on December 22, just in time for "Moon-mas."
