Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon Is Headed to Theaters, But With a Catch

Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire will get a theatrical release from December 15th-21st before it makes its official debut on Netflix on December 22nd. However, Rebel Moon will only be showing in theaters equipped for 70mm presentations. The list of locations includes several Netflix-owned theaters like the Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles, and Paris Theater in NYC, as well as Toronto's TIFF Bell Lightbox and London's Prince Charles Cinema.

Netflix has put out other big theatrical release campaigns for its big blockbuster film releases – including Snyder's most recent project, the action-horror film Army of the Dead. However, the choice to give Rebel Moon a much smaller release in 70mm theaters has raised some questions. Some of the speculation is that Netflix is really leaning into Rebel Moon being a major blockbuster franchise draw for the streaming service during the all-important Christmas Holiday window.

That said, this is still a win for all those cinephile fans who wanted to see Snyder's latest visual extravaganza in the true glory of a larger movie screen. When the Rebel Moon trailer dropped, one fo the first big responses was a social media hashtag that read"Rebel Moon in theaters", clearly showing there was a market for those wanting the true cinematic experience for this IP.
