Rebel Moon Zack Snyder animated series podcast

Rebel Moon: Zack Snyder Announces Prequel Animated Series, Narrative Podcast

Zack Snyder says an animated series and a narrative podcast set before the events of his upcoming Rebel Moon film are both in the works.

In the latest issue of Total Film, via GamesRadar, Snyder revealed an animated Rebel Moon series and narrative podcast are both in development. Additionally, a four-issue prequel comic series titled Rebel Moon: House of the Bloodaxe, written by Magdalene Visaggio and illustrated by Clark Bint, is launching from Titan Comics on January 10, 2024.

“We’re doing a narrative podcast, and an animated comic book, and an animated series,” Snyder said. “They all take place before the events of the movie. So you can start to understand the vastness of the mythology that we’ve been working on.”

Rebel Moon co-writer Kurt Johnstad added, “The world is very, very detailed and fleshed out. There are hundreds and hundreds of pages of documents of methodology and mythology and lore. The timeline goes back 800 years, from our movies.”

Further details about the animated series and narrative podcast remain under wraps at this time.

Rebel Moon arrives in December 2023

Rebel Moon, also known as Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire, is receiving a limited theatrical release in the United States on December 15, 2023, before it hits Netflix on December 22, 2023. A sequel, Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver, is also planned for April 19, 2024.

“When a peaceful colony on the edge of a galaxy finds itself threatened by the armies of a tyrannical ruling force, Kora (Sofia Boutella), a mysterious stranger living among the villagers, becomes their best hope for survival,” the official synopsis reads. “Tasked with finding trained fighters who will unite with her in making an impossible stand against the Mother World, Kora assembles a small band of warriors — outsiders, insurgents, peasants and orphans of war from different worlds who share a common need for redemption and revenge. As the shadow of an entire Realm bears down on the unlikeliest of moons, a battle over the fate of a galaxy is waged, and in the process, a new army of heroes is formed.”

The PG-13 cut of Rebel Moon will be 2 hours and 13 minutes long, while the R-rated director’s cut will add approximately an extra hour of footage to the movie, according to Snyder.
