It's probably safe to say that everyone does but when the studios are putting down a lot of cash for The Next Big Thing, they tend to want a safer bet like a sequel or remake or part of a franchise. This doesn't seem to be working as well as it was and it is increasingly looking like spending smaller amounts spread around could generate a big hit too but that does need them to be able to spot good ideas and they don't have a great track record on this.

Unfortunately, they'll be looking at things like rebel moon as an excuse not to try new things.

The conclusion to take from Rebel Moon is to stop giving Zack Snyder money. At least stop him from directing things he wrote.

I don’t know anything about rebel moon, what happened with it that would do this?

Zack Snyder happened. And he'll keep on happening until everyone learns their lesson.
