Rebel Moon: A Child of Fire - Full cast list

Zack Snyder's film Rebel Moon: A Child of Fire chronicles an epic space voyage. This movie is the first part of a two-part film where viewers will be introduced to yet another planet by Snyder. The film has been available for streaming on Netflix since December 21, 2023.

The official synopsis of the film reads:

"When a colony on the edge of the galaxy 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 neighbouring planets to help them take a stand."

After being in development for a long time, the film blends Akira Kurosawa's renowned masterpiece Seven Samurai with director Zack Snyder's love of all things Star Wars. With a fantastic ensemble, the film seems to be a fantastic science fiction adventure.

Hunnam plays Kai, a mercenary pilot who will be of great assistance to Kora in her mission with his Tawau-Class ship. He's a down-and-dirty hustler who may be useful in any kind of confrontational negotiation, even fights.

From his lengthy run on FX's epic Sons of Anarchy, Hunnam has made a name for himself in Hollywood as this kind of gritty outlaw, who he portrays in Rebel Moon: A Child of Fire too. Hunnam has also appeared in films like Pacific Rim, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, and The Gentlemen.

3) Ed Skrein as Admiral Atticus Noble

Ed Skrein portrays the main antagonist of Rebel Moon: A Child of Fire. He plays Admiral Atticus Noble, an Imperium enforcer who spearheads the takeover of the peaceful province of Veldt.

As per Zack Snyder, Ed plays a "nutcase" in the film. He arrives at Veldt with a bang and an outburst of blatant violence. It is the symbol of the Imperium, and the people of Veldt will face far more savagery if they refuse to surrender their harvest.

Ed Skrein has previously appeared in films like Deadpool, The Transporter: Refueled, and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil.
