Zack Snyder’s worldbuilding for Rebel Moon has gone to another level: a series, a podcast, and an 800-year timeline
Exclusive: The Rebel Moon director talks ♒to Total Film about plans for his extended universe on Netflix

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Zack Snyder has taken his worldbuilding to a🔯nother level for new movie🌃 Rebel Moon.
The spacefaring fantasy epic, split into two parts on Netflix, will now consist of an animated ser🔯ies, an animated comic book, and a narrative podcast - all set prior to the events of the film.
"I’m the gatekeeper for what’s possible. I’m the only one who knows where the whole story is going, and I do have it mapped all the way," Snyder chuckles during an interview in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new issue of Total Film, which hits shelves next week.
"We’re doing a narrative podcast, and an animated comic book, and an animated series. They all take place before the events of the movie. So 🌸you can start to understand the vastness of the mythology that we’ve been working on."
That's only the start. As co-writer Kurt Johnstad explains, the Rebel Moon featu𝄹re itself is the 🦋tip of the iceberg.
"The world is very, very detailed an🥂d fleshed out," Johnstad says. "There’s hundreds and hundreds of pages ꦆof documents of methodology and mythology and lore. The timeline goes back 800 years, from our movies."
That even extends to a 12ft whiteboard in tꦯhe ꦫwriters' room, featuring the Rebel Moon timeline in all its glory: "There’s a ruler with inches underneath that whiteboard," says Johnstad. "And the two movies are literally two or three inches of that entire 12-foot span."
