The wait is finally coming to an end. It’s only just a tiny bit longer until the debut of the trailer from Zack Snyder’s new space opera. It was previously announced that today is to be the worldwide debut of the trailer for Zack Snyder‘s new film, Rebel Moon. The Watchmen director took to social media to announce that his upcoming sci-fi film will have a special appearance at a video game event in Germany called Gamescom.
