Netflix’s Rebel Moon – Part One: Director’s Cut is rated R.
Zack Snyder’s latest spectacle has been taking flight on Netflix, with Rebel Moon currently spanning two movies on the platform. Almost from the start, it has been confirmed that both Rebel Moon movies will get R-rated director’s cuts, and while we don’t know exactly when they will be making their debut, the first portion just got a significant detail. According to a new listing from FilmRatings, the first portion of the Rebel Moon director’s cut is “Rated R for brutal bloody violence and gore, sexual content, graphic nudity and language.” While this R-rating for the Rebel Moon director’s cuts has been teased for quite some time, some fans will surely be excited to know the exact nature of the content in this new version.
Interestingly, the listing also dubs Rebel Moon – Part One: Director’s Cut under the names of Rebel Moon – Chapter One: Chalice Of Blood and Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child Of Fire (Extended Edition). With Snyder referring to the director’s cuts as movies in a different universe from the two existing Rebel Moon movies, we’ll have to wait and see if the Chalice of Blood subtitle is used to further differentiate that.Â
When Will the Rebel Moon Director’s Cut Be Released?
As Rebel Moon co-writer Kurt Johnstad explained in a recent interview with ComicBook.com, fans can safely expect both of those director’s cuts to be released at the same time, at some point in 2024.
“Yeah, you’re going to see them this year for sure,” Johnstad told us. “From what I’ve been told… I can’t give you a date, I know there is a date but I can’t give you that date. But you’ll see them. What I’ve been told by Zack, and I believe that this is allowed to be said, that both movie one and movie two will be released on the same day at the same time. So sometime in 2024, you can sit down and for six hours have a non-interrupted experience of Zack Snyder.”
