What is Rebel Moon’s cut about?
Stemming from the brilliant mind of Zack Synder, Rebel Moon is a space adventure drama that tells the story of a group of rebels who are fighting to free a moon from an intergalactic army.
Led by the mysterious Kora, a band of misfits is the best bet for survival. The Netflix official logline reads that Kora is tasked with finding trained fighters who will unite with her in making an impossible stand against the Motherworld.

In the shadow of an entire realm, a new army of heroes is formed.

Rebel Moon director’s cut release date
The idea for Rebel Moon came to Synder’s head in 1997, when he was in college. The director has shared before that J.J. Abrams's Star Wars inspired the movie, but it is a different universe in itself. Known for his work developing movies for the Synderverse in the DC universe, Zack Snyder shifted his focus to developing Rebel Moon after he directed Justice League.
After the two films' initial release in 2023 and 2024, a two-part director’s cut of Rebel Moon will be released. The director’s cut for both Rebel Moon—Chapter One: Chalice of Blood and Rebel Moon—Chapter Two: Curse of Forgiveness will be available on Netflix beginning August 2.
