Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon Gives Ray Fisher A Wild Character Name
New reports suggest that Ray Fisher’s character will have quite an unusual name in Zack Snyder’s upcoming sci-fi fantasy film, Rebel Moon. Developed from a concept that Snyder had originally pitched to Lucasfilm as a potential Star Wars project, the director later decided to develop the idea within its own fictional universe as part of his first-look deal with Netflix. Citing the works of Japanese director, Akira Kurosawa, as a major source of inspiration, the film will follow the story of a young woman (played by Sofia Boutella) who is dispatched to seek out warriors from neighboring planets when her own colony is threatened by a tyrant known as Belisarius.
Continuing to work with many of his former collaborators, Snyder has penned the script for this latest outing with his Army of the Dead co-writer, Shay Hattan, and Kurt Johnstad, who helped him adapt Frank Miller’s 300 onto the screen. In a series of recent casting announcements, it was also revealed that Snyder will once again be working alongside Ray Fisher, who first appeared in a cameo role as Cyborg (a.k.a. Victor Stone) in 2016’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice before making his full debut in 2017’s Justice League. When Snyder departed production on the DC team-up due to a family tragedy, Avengers director Joss Whedon was tapped to assume directorial duties and made several alterations to Snyder’s original plan for the film, including significantly reducing Fisher’s role.
