Zack Snyder Sets His Sights on Long-Awaited Passion Project THE LAST PHOTOGRAPH

After lots of speculating what he might direct next, Zack Snyder has finally revealed his next film, and it’s not another genre epic. Instead, the Rebel Moon director is stepping into completely new territory with a gritty indie war drama titled The Last Photograph.

This isn’t some random detour. Snyder has reportedly been trying to get this project off the ground for over two decades. Now, he’s finally ready to bring his long-gestating vision to life, with production set to kick off next month.

The Last Photograph will star Stuart Martin and Fra Free, both of whom fans will recognize from Rebel Moon. The story itself was originally conceived by Snyder and developed into a screenplay by longtime collaborator Kurt Johnstad.

Unlike Snyder’s massive blockbuster ventures like 300, Watchmen, or Man of Steel, this movie is shaping up to be a much more intimate, grounded experience. Production will take place across several visually stunning and diverse locations, including Iceland, Colombia, and Los Angeles.

Snyder isn’t just directing either. He’s producing alongside his creative partner and wife Deborah Snyder, and Wesley Coller, under their Stone Quarry production banner. Gianni Nunnari and his Hollywood Gang Productions are also onboard as producers.

The score for The Last Photograph will be composed by Hans Zimmer, Steven Doar, and Omer Benyamin. That lineup alone promises something deeply emotional and cinematic.

There’s no word yet on a release date, but this new direction for Snyder is a refreshing pivot that could surprise a lot of fans, and maybe even win him some new ones. Keep an eye out for more updates as this long-time passion project finally comes to life.
