Zack Snyder Can’t Let ‘Insurgent Moon’ Die

Keep in mind Insurgent Moon? Netflix’s two-part movie series created by Zack Snyder, launched in late 2023 and early 2024, which then had two longer, bloodier versions launched that very same yr? Snyder’s answer to Star Wars, during which he created his personal sci-fi world from the bottom up? Ring a bell? If not, that’s as a result of they did properly on the streamer however didn’t fairly resonate culturally like likely hoped. However, it appears Snyder isn’t prepared to surrender on the franchise simply but.

Working example, Netflix just released Blood Line, a co-op marketing campaign motion recreation set within the Insurgent Moon universe. Extra importantly, although, Snyder is leaving the door open to make extra films. “I received sidetracked into this—not sidetracked, it’s all uptown issues, as they are saying—for Netflix, I’m engaged on an LAPD SWAT film,” Snyder informed Variety. “So I used to be like, ‘Okay, properly, I’m gonna simply type of let that Insurgent Moon world boil for a minute, and I’m gonna go do that.’ And albeit, it was a really exhausting, lengthy course of doing the 2 films collectively. So it was good to have a little bit of a break from it. I adore it like loopy, but it surely’s good to have a little bit of a break. So yeah, we’ll see after I end this, after I come again, the place we’re with the whole lot.”

So it looks as if a cop film now, and perhaps Insurgent Moon later. Possibly. As for what it could be about, Snyder mentioned it could possibly be something. “There’s tons of tales,” he mentioned. “So, I imply, I believe it’s actually, it’s limitless. However, once more, like I say, I’m ready to see how we wish to and in what manner we might transfer ahead, if in any respect.”

“If in any respect” clearly makes it look like perhaps Insurgent Moon is useless however, additionally, not. Personally, I believe it was admirable that Snyder took such an enormous swing with the 2, became 4, sci-fi epics, however, frankly, they stunk. Do one thing else. Let it go. We simply aren’t positive he can.
