Stuber was Vice Chairman of Worldwide Production at Universal Pictures back in 2004 when Snyder crossed over from music video-directing with his first (and arguably still best) movie Dawn of the Dead. The project will also mark a reunion for Snyder and Scott Stuber, the head of original films at Netflix.

Desperate people dispatch a young woman with a mysterious past to seek out warriors from neighboring planets to help them make a stand." THR describes the story as follows: "The story is set in motion when a peaceful colony on the edge of the galaxy is threatened by the armies of a tyrannical regent named Balisarius. He and his wife and regular collaborator Deborah Snyder will produce. Chewie will get the job done in terms of credit heist/mod challenges once he's 5 star and gear 7 or 8. THR reports that Rebel Moon will re-team Snyder with Shay Hatten and Kurt Johnstad, who co-wrote the scripts for Army of the Dead and 300, respectively.

Now, it's official: Snyder has set his next project at Netflix as Rebel Moon, a title that winks at the project's Star Wars origins, but that will tell an original story with the hopes of launching a new "epic sci-fi fantasy" franchise.
