We don’t have a look at the movie as of now, but we do have news on who could be the film’s potential star.

As per Deadline, Sofia Boutella (The Mummy, Kingsman) has been tapped to star in Zack Snyder’s next project. We don’t have a specific breakdown of her character, but the synopsis can be a hint as to what we can expect.

Here’s the description of the plot:

The film is set in a peaceful colony on the edge of the galaxy that finds itself threatened by the armies of the tyrannical Regent Balisarius. They dispatch a young woman with a mysterious past to seek out warriors from neighboring planets to help them take a stand [against] the Tyrant.

With Sofia Boutella having supporting roles as a kick-ass femme fatale, I’m excited to actually see her take center stage in a film. Whether you like or hate Snyder, I think you can agree that he has very interesting casting choices—like Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman. I’m ready for Boutella to be the Luke Skywalker of Snyder’s Star Wars.

Despite his falling out with WB, it looks like Snyder is still thriving creatively. Like many fans though, I am hoping that he manages to work on DC again, especially with so many people wanting Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, and many more back.

As of now, no release date has been set for Snyder’s Rebel Moon, but you can catch his latest film, Army of the Dead (and its spinoff Army of Thieves), now on Netflix.

Watch First Teaser for Army of the Dead Prequel, Army of Thieves https://www.geekfeed.com/watch-first-teaser-for-army-of-the-dead-prequel-army-of-thieves/ Tue, 27 Jul 2021 00:49:11 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=60740 Probably one of the most memorable characters in Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead was Matthias Schweighöfer’s Dieter, and though the character pretty much met his end in the film, we do get to follow him in a more prominent role in the spinoff prequel, Army of Thieves. Netflix has just dropped the first teaser, and it follows Dieter pulling off a huge heist before he started working with zombies.

Check out the trailer for Army of Thieves down here: 

Here’s the official description:

In this prequel to Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead, small-town bank teller Dieter gets drawn into the adventure of a lifetime when a mysterious woman recruits him to join a crew of Interpol’s most wanted criminals, attempting to heist a sequence of legendary, impossible-to-crack safes across Europe.

Schweighöfer himself is actually directing this film, and besides him, Game of Thrones fans will also recognize Nathalie Emmanuel. Other stars include Ruby O. Fee, Stuart Martin, Noemie Nakai, and Jonathan Cohen.

While some people weren’t fans of Snyder’s Army of the Dead, you could have a fun time by thinking that it’s essentially a big-budget B-movie love letter to the zombie genre. I’m not expecting this movie to be Ocean’s Eleven, but it should be some good fun. If it’s anything like AOTD, then it would be an ode to espionage heist films instead. Then again, that’s just my guess.

No release date has been set for Army of Thieves, but it is set to come out sometime this year. In the meantime, you can catch Dieter in the Snyder-directed Army of the Dead now on Netflix.
