On assignment for Looper.com, Tim talked with “Rebel Moon” writer-director Zack Snyder and the film’s cast about their new gritty sci-fi epic.

Reflecting on how the film’s story began as a pitch for the “Star Wars” universe, Snyder reflected on what remains in “Rebel Moon: Part One – A Child of Fire” from his original vision: “Mostly what it allowed is that any of the “Star Wars” iconology that you might see in the movie now that’s left over is there by design. In the end, I can’t help myself 100% from being a slight deconstructivist and taking a subversive look at the overall science fiction landscape or the sort of pantheon of mythology that we accept as our cinematic touchstones.
