Standing apart in the wide field of content that is Hollywood is indeed a feat in itself. However, getting an entire fleet of fans to rally behind you despite being snubbed by the studio is a rarity. Zack Snyder installed himself as a director who instilled a unique cinematic and unexpected take on Superman with <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/">Henry Cavill</a>. The filmmaker commanded such an impressive fan following that Netflix was hell-bent on not letting it pass. Years after releasing the Army of the Dead, he is returning to the streaming giant with Rebel Moon.
Nearly a month to the release of his two-part space opera, an interesting update has popped up that is binding Snyder’s fate to the streamer.
<h2>Rebel Moon will share Zack Snyder’s vision and universe with this film</h2>
Coming in as a reprieve for audiences all over, Army of the Dead came in with Dave Bautista during the peak pandemic. The zombie-thriller marked the first instance of Zack Snyder teaming up with Netflix, which has now resulted in a fruitful unison. The director’s $166 million budget two-part space extravaganza directly takes on and one-ups Star Wars with its ‘mature take’. <a href="https://www.gamesradar.com/zack-snyder-rebel-moon-army-of-the-dead-exclusive/&amp;utm_campaign=socialflow/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In the latest issue of Total Film (via Games Radar), Snyder admitted</a> that both of his Netflix franchises share the same universe.
<div class="flex-video widescreen youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Rebel Moon | Official Teaser Trailer | Netflix" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_rHLOXbFZtI?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
Revealing two animated spin-offs to the zombie heist, the director revealed his plans for a tie-up. “Army of the Dead has a pretty vast mythology that never made it into the movie,” Snyder added. Moreover, a character from the same was to open a portal and enter into the Rebel Moon universe. Regardless, the space outing serves some crossovers in the form of an animatic from one popping up as a live character in the upcoming flick.

In a galaxy far, far away, here is how Snyder plans to segregate his movie from the wider Star Wars.
<h2>Once pitched to be canon to Star Wars, Netflix is having a field day with its galaxy</h2>
Rebel Moon could have never seen the light of the day had Netflix not intervened. The movie was Snyder&#8217;s initial pitch to George Lucas for adaptation into Star Wars but stood rejected for being too mature. Interestingly, that very curse set out to be its boon as the streamer <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-fuk-star-wars-heres-why-rebel-moon-producers-celebrate-zack-snyder-ideas-being-rejected-from-the-seventy-billion-franchise/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rejoiced and gave the director full freedom to go all out</a> with a no-holds-barred vision.

Coming in with uncensored violence, it is precisely how the visual fest intends to stand apart from Disney’s franchise. Additionally, one characteristic approach to the all-powerful lightsaber has been modified. Snyder opts for a sword that only, when required, goes into its full laser mode. Despite their similarities, Rebel Moon is destined to have all but grit and rebellion written all over it.
