The teaser begins with the narrative voiceover by Academy Award-winning
veteran actor Anthony Hopkins, who says, "Do you know the story of
Princess Isa?" As the voiceover describes as her 'the Redeemer,' she is
also hailed as "the child who would stop the madness of war." Meanwhile,
as the invaders find Kora, she is given the herculean task of uniting
against the invading forces. With breathtaking visual effects and
larger-than-life action sequences, the trailer promises to be a
thrilling origin space saga for fans worldwide.
Rebel Moon was originally intended to be released as one movie, but the
runtime was three hours long, which was not a wise decision according to
Scott Stuber, who is the chairman of Netflix Film. In an interview
with Vanity Fair, Zack Synder's partner Deborah Snyder said, "Stuber
was like, ‘On the service, under-two-hour movies really do better for
some reason,’ even though you’ll binge-watch a series of eight
episodes... Zack said, ‘If you ask me to make this less than two hours,
I’m going to lose all the character. You won’t care about these people.
It’s a character story about how people can change, and redemption, and
what are you willing to fight for…’ So he said, ‘What if I give you two
movies?’” Therefore, the film was divided into two parts.
Rebel Moon Part 1: A Child of Fire also stars Djimon Hounsou, Michiel
Huisman, Doona Bae, Ray Fisher, Charlie Hunnam, g Staz Nair, Fra Fee,
Cleopatra Coleman, Stuart Martin, Ingvar Eggert Sigurðsson, Alfonso
Herrera, and Cary Elwes among others. It releases on Netflix on December
22. The trailer also reveals that Part 2, titled The Scargiver, will be
released on April 19, 2024.
