Army of the Dead director has confirmed that his upcoming space adventure, Rebel Moon, shares a universe with the Netflix zombie show. Speaking to Total Film magazine, he said that "Army of the Dead has a pretty vast mythology that never made it into the movie". "There’s actually a character from Rebel Moon in the Army of the Dead animated series that we never did," he added.
Army of the Dead began two years ago with the movie of the same name, in which Dave Bautista and Ella Purnell battled zombies in a post-apocalyptic Las Vegas. Snyder planned an animated series for Netflix but the series was never finished, and that's where the crossovers between the two appear to live. "At one point in the show, they go through a portal into another dimension, and there are characters in that other dimension that they come across. In Rebel Moon, they're in this bar, and one of the aliens is one of the characters from the animatic. So it's definitely a shared universe."
