Matthew George "Matt" Reeves (born April 27, 1966 in Rockville Center, New York, USA) is an American screenwriter, director, and producer. He began making movies at age eight, directing friends and using a wind-up camera. Reeves befriended filmmaker J.J. Abrams when both were 13 years old and they were making short films together. When Reeves and Abrams were 15 or 16 years old, Steven Spielberg hired them to transfer some of his own Super 8 films to videotape. Reeves began his career as a screenwriter for the films Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995) and The Pallbearer (1996), the latter of which marked his feature-length directorial debut. He then transitioned into television as a director and co-creator of the drama series Felicity (1998–2002) alongside J.J. Abrams. Reeves has since directed the horror film Cloverfield (2008), the romantic horror film Let Me In (2010), and the science fiction sequels Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) and War for the Planet of the Apes (2017). In February 2017, Warner Bros. announced that Reeves would direct The Batman (2022) by DC, starring Robert Pattinson.

Shepard and Ezekial prepare for the Hunters' relocation. Mercenary's leadership decides the dwindling Hunter Unit no longer deserves its own outpost, ordering everyone moved to a larger compound. Shepard knows Daryl won't survive the transfer, so he heads underground to kill him himself. He unlocks the cell... but it's empty. Back upstairs, Ezekial laughs. Daryl steps into the room wearing a tailored black suit, pistol at his side. Ezekial reveals they've been working together. Mercenary may be abandoning the Hunters, but they intend to preserve them themselves. Shepard demands Daryl be executed and the relocation continue. Ezekial refuses. Furious, Shepard leaves alone. At the main compound, Vexus escorts Shepard to the Commander. The Commander asks one question: "Where are the Hunters?" Shepard explains. The Commander shrugs. He had planned to spare the unit, but now they're worthless. They'll simply be left to die on the frozen island. Shepard is dismissed from Mercenary and told to disappear. Walking out, Shepard notices the High Security Cell Block. Marc. Using a stolen keycard, he reaches the entrance and claims the Commander sent him. A guard starts verifying the order. Shepard shoots him, drops the second guard, and races to the chamber. Alarms erupt. The cell opens. Guards fill Shepard with bullets. He collapses smiling as the heavy door swings wide. A hand reaches from the darkness, unclipping the grenade from Shepard's belt. Marc rolls it into the corridor. Golden shards explode through the hallway, tearing into Mercenary soldiers. Marc picks up Shepard's pistol and fights through wave after wave of guards. A bullet tears through his stomach, but he heals and keeps moving. He reaches a Mercenary helicopter, guns down the pilot, and takes off. Before leaving, Marc activates a Mercenary emergency transponder. Miles away, Mitch's radio crackles with the SOS and Marc's coordinates. Mitch looks at Nick, Mark, and Iris. "It's him."
