Zach Snyder has revealed in a new interview that he is working on an RPG video game for upcoming Netflix project Rebel Moon.
Rebel Moon is a science fiction space opera film, with an ensemble cast boasting the likes of Sofia Boutella, Charlie Hunnam, Ray Fisher, Djimon Hounsou, Jena Malone, Corey Stoll, Ed Skrein, Cleopatra Coleman, Fra Fee, Cary Elwes, and Sir Anthony Hopkins.
Sofia plays the movie’s lead, Kora, while Ed Skrein plays the antagonist Balisarius. Netflix has the confidence in this project that they are also filmed Rebel Moon Part 2 back-to-back.
The producers have shared this description of the film’s premise:
“A peaceful colony on the edge of the galaxy is threatened by the armies of a tyrannical regent named Balisarius. The desperate civilians dispatch Kora, a young woman who has a mysterious past to seek out warriors from nearby planets to help them challenge the regent.”
Apparently, Snyder had originally pitched Rebel Moon to Lucasfilm as a Star Wars film, sometime before they were sold to Disney. That means this project probably existed years before Snyder was tapped to helm the DC Extended Universe movies.

And like, we talked about how we would do the game and, like, we just said, let’s go.”
And then, Zach elaborated on how he made the decision to make this a huge RPG.
