"You are all that stands between us and annihilation."
Following Rebel Moon - Part 1: A Child of Fire's debut on Netflix last night (you can check out a spoiler breakdown of the ending here), the streamer has released the first trailer for the second part of Zack Snyder's Star Wars-inspired sci-fi epic, The Scargiver.
The teaser finds Kora and the other survivors of the first film's battle against Admiral Noble's forces preparing the people of Veldt for the imminent arrival of the full might of the Motherworld. We also get glimpses of flashbacks to General Titus' days as an enemy soldier before he, like Kora, turned his back on The Imperium.
As expected, it looks like Jimmy the robot will be the final piece of this "Magnificent Seven," although he doesn't seem too confident in their chances.
Check out the trailer below along with two promo images, and let us know what you made of A Child of Fire in the comments section.
From Zack Snyder, the filmmaker behind 300, Man of Steel, and Army of the Dead, comes REBEL MOON, an epic science-fantasy event decades in the making. When a peaceful colony on the edge of a galaxy finds itself threatened by the armies of a tyrannical ruling force, Kora (Sofia Boutella), a mysterious stranger living among the villagers, becomes their best hope for survival.
Tasked with finding trained fighters who will unite with her in making an impossible stand against the Mother World, Kora assembles a small band of warriors — outsiders, insurgents, peasants and orphans of war from different worlds who share a common need for redemption and revenge. As the shadow of an entire Realm bears down on the unlikeliest of moons, a battle over the fate of a galaxy is waged, and in the process, a new army of heroes is formed.
The heroes of Rebel Moon are: Kora (Sofia Boutella), an Imperium deserter who leaves the peaceful Veldt to fight back; Kai (Charlie Hunnam), a mercenary pilot whose Tawau-Class freighter will prove invaluable to Kora’s quest; Gunnar (Michiel Huisman), a Veldt farmer who knows little of the galaxy outside of his small, quiet corner of the galaxy; General Titus (Djimon Hounsou), a hardened gladiator who once served the Imperium; Tarak (Staz Nair), a noble indentured servant who shares a bond with a flying creature called a Bennu; Nemesis (Doona Bae), a cyborg sword master whose mechanical hands allow her to wield molten-metal weapons; Darrian Bloodaxe (Ray Fisher), an insurgent who has been harrying the Imperium with guerilla attacks; and Milius (E. Duffy), a refugee who seeks justice for their home — a colony that has already fallen to the Mother World.
Rebel Moon: A Child of Fire hits Netflix on December 21. The sequel, Rebel Moon Part 2: The Scargiver, will debut on April 19, 2024.
