Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire is burning up the Netflix charts. In a ratings report on Wednesday, the streamer announced that the first part of Snyder’s two-part sci-fi fantasy epic topped the English Films List as the most-watched title of the week with 23.9 million views. (In June 2023, Netflix updated its top 10 rankings to report estimated viewership rather than hours viewed; the new views metric is determined by taking the total hours viewed and dividing by the title’s total runtime.) Rebel Moon — which has a run time of 2 hours and 16 minutes — debuted December 21 on Netflix after a limited stint in select theaters and racked up 54.1 million hours viewed during the week of Dec. 18—Dec. 24, according to the streamer.
