Rebel Moon: The Scargiver–Can second chapter jumpstart the new sci-fi franchise?

Fans of the world and characters of Zack Snyder’s multi-film, James Cameron-inspired sci-fi franchise Rebel Moon, beginning with Rebel Moon Part One: A Child of Fire (reviewed here) will get to see where all that worldbuilding and character set-up is leading in less than two weeks with the Netflix premiere of Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver What are you looking forward to the most?  More Sofia Boutella taking on the galaxy?  Bae Doona’s character Nemesis getting to show off a light saber battle outside the Star Wars universe?  Djimon Hounsou’s character Titus gets to be a centerpiece of the official movie poster–what is in store for his character?  Maybe the biggest revelation will be the realization of what is possible for the robot called Jimmy, voiced by Anthony Hopkins.  His story of rebellion and revenge really seems to be the centerpiece of what we’ve seen so far–and the “rebel” in the franchise’s title–and his story clearly hasn’t been told yet.

Take a look at this trailer for Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver:

Rebel Moon Part One: A Child of Fire, the first movie in the series, is streaming now on Netflix.  An R-Rated director’s cut is expected later this year.  Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver arrives on Netflix April 19, 2024.
