There has been a claim to a new movie for Red Sonja since comic book adaptations began to dominate the big screen. In fact, a few years ago, this claim was brought to reality and preparations for the film began. The film, which was not heard from for quite a long time, finally started to receive good news and it was announced that the filming had begun. With the start of shooting, the cast of Red Sonja also came to light.
She was previously signed with Hannah John Kamen for the lead role of the film. However, Kamen;s withdrawal from the film due to a discrepancy in the calendar triggered the search for a new actor for the role of Red Sonja. Finally the new name has been found and we will follow Matilda Lutz on the big screen as Red Sonja. The film’s director , M.J. Basset , also revealed that he has been a huge fan of Red Sonja since he was a teenager and is proud to bring her to the screen. Basset also said that as soon as he met Matilda Lutz, he began to dream of himself for the role.
Red Sonja, which has a very large comic book corpus, was previously brought to the big screen in 1985 with an adaptation starring Brigitte Nielsen. We first saw Red Sonya, who came out of Marvel in 1973, occasionally meeting with various Marvel characters such as Spider-Man . Red Sonja, whose rights have been with Dynamite Entertainment since 2005, has the film rights in the hands of Millennium Media.
After Lutz was announced as the lead role, the other characters of the film began to become clear. In the new film, we will see Wallis Day;i Annisia and Robert Sheehan as Draygan. On the other hand, names such as Michael Bisping, Eliza Matengu and Katrina Durden are also in the cast of the film. In the script written by Joey Soloway, who we also know from the film Transparent, we will see Tasha Huo as the producer. The next generation of Red Sonja does not yet have an official release date.
