Zack Snyder's Sci-Fi Epic Rebel Moon Scores Big for Netflix

Sofia Boutella as Kora and Michiel Huisman as Gunnar in Rebel Moon.

Zack Snyder is used to topping the box office, but his latest release has conquered a different playing field. While 2021's Army of the Dead had a limited theatrical release before its arrival on Netflix, his newest, Rebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Fire, went straight to the streamer, and seems to be reaping the rewards of that decision.

The sci-fi epic, which Snyder directed and co-wrote, debuted in the top spot on Netflix’s English-language films list on December 18 with 23.9 million views, according to the streamer. It also claimed spots in the top 10 of 93 different countries (with quite a few #1s) across the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia and New Zealand.
