Star Wars and the works of Akira Kurosawa, Rebel Moon has ambitions to become the next big sci-fi blockbuster.Directed by Zack Snyder, the space epic follows Kora (Sofia Boutella) who battles to defend her village against the tyrannical Regent Balisarius (Fra Fee) and his emissary, Admiral Noble (Ed Skrein).Other cast members include Djimon Hounsou, Charlie Hunnam, Michiel Huisman, Staz Nair, Doona Bae, Ray Fisher, Cleopatra Coleman and Jena Malone.The film is split into two parts, with the second titled Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver scheduled to arrive in April 2024.Jimmy is voiced by Anthony Hopkins and performed by Dustin Ceithamer in the film.
The robot, who is recruited by Kora, is the last member of a race of mechanical knights that served under the fallen king.Speaking to NME about casting Hopkins, Snyder said: “I mean, I was like, ‘Who can I get to be Jimmy?
Patrick Stewart? Gabriel Byrne? Something like that?’ And then they were like, ‘What about Hopkins?’ I was like, ‘What about him?’ Like, that’s not a cool thing to say: What about Hopkins?
Yes, of course Hopkins! And so we went and asked him and he was like, ‘Sure. Sounds cool.’ It was as simple as that.”Extended versions for both parts of Rebel Moon are set to be released in 2024.
