Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon is one of the most highly anticipated films this year. Although it is still some time away, it is already on the lips of movie fans everywhere.
Earlier this year, we found out that the film, originally imagined as a story set in the Star Wars universe, will be split into two parts. Now, Snyder has confirmed that there will actually be four parts. Don't get us wrong, Rebel Moon will only have two features. However, those features will also have extended cuts that the director said will be strictly for adults.
He told Vanity Fair, "I think for fans of mine and people who are ready to take a deeper, harder dive, that'll be fun for them."
Snyder's wife and co-owner of the production company The Stone Quarry provided more insight into how the film was split into two in the first place. She told Vanity Fair that Snyder's script was so long it would have churned out a film that is almost three hours.
Unfortunately, Netflix film chairman Scott Stuber wanted a film that was less than two hours because they performed better on the streaming platform. Snyder resisted this attempt to limit the story he wanted to tell, though, and Stuber asked him to make two films instead.
