Zack Snyder’s Next Netflix Pic Is a High-Stakes Actor on the LAPD

Umito November 16, 2024

After a zombie heist film, two poorly received sci-fi epics and an animated series on Norse mythology, Zack Snyderthe next project of Netflix is… an action movie about the LAPD? THR reports that, yes, something more grounded than superheroes, comic book adaptations, bad space opera and the walking dead is indeed Snyder’s next feature. The wonders will never cease.

Snyder will direct the picture and co-write with Kurt Johnstadhis collaborator on “300” “Rebel Moon”, and much more. He will also produce with his wife and partner Deborah Snyder And Wesley Coller via their Stone quarry banner. As for the title, the casting, even the principle, fans will have to wait for them. All anyone knows at the moment is that the pic is a high-stakes action thriller that follows the Los Angeles Police Department; quite a departure for Snyder, but perhaps an about-face after the poor results of “Rebel Moon”.

However, if we go back far enough in Snyder’s career, this new film bears an uncanny resemblance to what was supposed to be his first feature film: “CRUSH» of 2003. Snyder left the Sony film after disagreements over the film’s rating (he wanted an R-rated film while the studio wanted a PG-13) and continued to make his “Dawn of the Dead» redo instead. Now, twenty-one years later, he returns to a project that could be the hard-R action film he wanted to make.

Snyder briefly spoke to THR about how the new project came to be, with him and Netflix’s head of the film. Dan Lin discuss possible film ideas. “Years ago, I had a conversation about our shared interest in telling a compelling and visceral character-driven story set in the intense, complex and captivating landscape of the LAPD,” the director explained. “It’s a conversation that has stayed with me. So, as you would expect, I’m very excited to now have the opportunity to partner with Dan, as well as the rest of my incredible partners at Netflix, to develop this story.

This is the fourth film between Stony Quarry and Netflix since Snyder directed “Army Of The Dead” in 2021. Since then, the pair have also directed the two “Rebel Moon” films and the prequel “Dead”army of thieves.” Stone Quarry and Netflix also teamed up to “Twilight of the Gods», Snyder’s animated series on Norse mythology, released on the streamer in September. As for when this LAPD actioner will come to Netflix? The best estimate is 2026 at the earliest.
