Director’s cuts are different movies
The Rebel Moon director’s cut is on the way where each part will have an hour of additional footage.
“Tonally, they’re completely different. They’re each an hour longer,” Snyder revealed to Entertainment Weekly “They’re three hours each, and there are tons of scenes that aren’t in the initial versions. We went so far into the weeds with it to the point that even within the body of the movie, a line that was the same in PG-13 as it is in R might be a different take of the same line.”
Snyder continued, “Emotionally, it’s more like a parallel universe than an extended version. Things happen that in the R-rated version that don’t happen in the PG-13. The event order is all different, so it’s really an interesting exercise.”
Snyder also added, “We definitely made four separate movies. There’s no doubt about that.”
The Rebel Moon director’s cuts are expected to be released on Netflix this summer.
