  REBEL MOON CROWNS 

ED SKREIN AS THE REGENT

Ed Skrein will be the galactic regent

And it is an unexpected move, as Ed Skrein is actually replacing Rupert Friend in the role of a galactic tyrant in Zack Snyder's science fiction epic REBEL MOON that he is shooting for Netflix. Cleopatra Coleman, Fra Fee and Rhian Rees have also joined the rather hunky ensemble of actors that already includes Stuart Martin, Cary Elwes, Corey Stoll, Michiel Huisman, Sofia Boutella, Charlie Hunnam, Djimon Hounsou and Alfonso Herrera! The story of the new sf epic is set in a peaceful colony on the edge of the galaxy that finds itself threatened by the armies of the tyrannical Regent Balisarius, so they send a young woman (Boutella) with a mysterious past to seek out warriors from neighboring planets to help them raise a fight.
