Rebel Moon Part One - A Child of Fire unconventional premiere: When and where to watch
Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon: Part One — A Child of Fire. Scheduled for streaming on Friday, Dec. 22, this Netflix Original will deviate from the norm, allowing subscribers to catch it a night earlier, on Thursday, Dec. 21 at 10:00 p.m. EST, with west coast viewers gaining access even earlier.
