4-hour DC highlight Zack Snyder’s Justice League is said to have been influenced by manipulation. Research by WarnerMedia found that at least 13 percent of accounts involved in the infamous Synder Cut campaign online Fakes or spam bots should have been.
Zack Snyder himself was also accused of knowingly supporting the fake accounts and even those responsible for Warner threatened with outright social media destruction should have. The director’s current film career is currently secured anyway – thanks to Netflix.
Zack Snyder appears to be staying with Netflix long-term
Even after a difficult business relationship with Warner Snyder left the studio after Justice League. He then shot his next feature film for Netflix before completing the Snyder cut.
The zombie action film Army of the Dead starring Dave Bautista and Matthias Schweighöfer was released in May 2021 and was scheduled for Netflix open up a whole universewhich was expanded, among other things, by Schweighöfer’s spin-off Army of Thieves.

Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead is a disappointment | After the snydercut it’s lame
While Snyder is set to oversee the Army of the Dead universe as a producer, he’s already filming his next big blockbuster for Netflix. Rebel Moon started out as Disney pitch ahead of the new Star Wars sequelsbut was rejected.
Netflix then took over the project, in which a peaceful colony on the edge of the galaxy is under threat from the troops of a tyrannical ruler. In order to survive, the colony sends out a young woman (Sofia Boutella) with a mysterious past Warriors from neighboring planets into an army of their own to gather.
For Rebel Moon, Snyder drew not only from Star Wars, but also from Akira Kurosawa classics like The seven samurai inspire. Filming is currently underway on the director’s heart project.
In addition to Sofia Boutella, stars such as Charlie Hunnam, Ray Fisher, Djimon Hounsou, Rupert Friend and Doona Bae also play in Rebel Moon. Snyder’s own version of Star Wars should then sometime in 2023 appear on Netflix.
