Zack Snyder Offers First Look At Set Photos For Netflix Project Rebel Moon
Director Zack Snyder has given fans a first look at his next film, Rebel Moon. The filmmaker posted some early set photos to his personal social media account, teasing the Netflix original film.
Netflix's Rebel Moon was originally intended to be a Star Wars spinoff and is said to be heavily inspired by the films of Japanese director Akira Kurosawa, who in turn was also a huge inspiration for George Lucas.

The other two photos appear to show the entrance to some kind of spaceship, along with crew members hard at work in the desert.
