With the fate of the oppressed villagers of Veldt hanging in the balance, the rebels must marshal their courage and cunning to thwart the machinations of the malevolent Motherworld.

“My hopes are that because we were able to do two films, that we’re able to really invest in the characters for the first film so that the audience gets to really understand why they’re fighting for the villagers of Veldt,” Snyder says. “In Part Two, it’s time for that fight to begin.”
