We may not have seen the last of the Ancient Greek Snyderverse. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Zack Snyder has regained the rights to Blood and Ashes, a script that started life as a 300 sequel but event🌸ually grew into a diff🧜erent story. 

"We got the rights🔜 back so we c🉐an make if we want it," Snyder told in a new interview. "I don’t know what the marketplace is for an incredibly homoerotic, super violent, super sexual movie. But maybe it’s perfect."

The script was co-written with Snyder's longtime collaborator K🌼urt Johnstad back in 2019 and pitched to Warner Bros. However, the studio ultimately decided not to pursue the movie, which The Hollywood Reporter describes as an Ancient Greek war epic and a violent love story about Alexander the Great and his second in command, Haphaestion. Now, tꦆhough, Snyder is free to shop the script around to other studios.

300, released back in 2006, is a fictionalized retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae in 480 BC. A sequel, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:300: Rise of an Empire, followed in 2014 – Snyder and Johnstad co-wrote the script, but Noam Murro took over directing duties as Snyder was busy making 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Man of Steel.

Next up for Snyder is Rebel Moon – Pa📖rt One: A Child of Fire, a new sci-fi epic with a stacked ensemble cast that inclಞudes Sofia Boutella, Charlie Hunnam, Anthony Hopkins, Corey Stoll, Djimon Hounsou, Cary Elwes, Jena Malone, Doona Bae, and Ray Fisher. 

Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire arrives on Netflix on December 22. In the meantime, fill out your watch list with our picks of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Netflix movies on the streamer right now.
