New Photo From RED SONJA Movie Shows Matilda Lutz in Full Costume
This Red Sonja movie must be going through some behind the scenes issues because we still have yet to see a trailer for the movie.
A trailer was supposed to premiere at Comic-Con last summer in 2023, but it never ended up being shared. But, today we have a new photo to share with you from the movie, and it features Matilda Lutz in full costume looking like a badass.
The photo came with the caption: “It’s HER Time…”
The movie was being developed by Millennium Media and director M.J. Bassett (Solomon Kane, Silent Hill: Revelation). I’ve been excited about this movie, but the fact that the team behind it hasn’t realized anything since it completed shooting tells me it may not be the winner that fans hoped it would be.
Producer Les Weldon, previously explained in an interview that the movie will be more grounded than some of the other films in the fantasy genre:
"We're just about finished with the editing. That film is very rooted and very real if you will, but there are a couple of sequences that we have to get the CGI right so that you don't look at it and go, 'Oh, that creature wasn't quite there.'
“So we finished the film, and we're ready to get into the next part of post on it. Red Sonja is also a little bit of a, I don't wanna say a darker take, but a little bit darker take than you would expect, certainly compared to the original Red Sonja.
“We want to be very careful with the CG to make sure it's done properly and does the film a service rather than a disservice."
The movie also stars Wallis Day (Sex/Life, Batwoman) as Annisia and Robert Sheehan (The Umbrella Academy, Misfits) as Draygan.
Additonal cast members include Michael Bisping (xXx: Return of Xander Cage) as Hawk, Martyn Ford as General Karlak (F9: The Fast Saga, Final Score), Eliza Matengu (Thor: Love and Thunder) as Amarak, Manal El Feitury (Code Red) as Ayala, and Katrina Durden (Doctor Strange, Shadow and Bone) as Saevus.
The beloved She-Devil With a Sword's story began in comics in 1973, and now 50 years later she remains the greatest sword-and-sorcery female heroine of them all!
She's hacked and slashed her way into the hearts of fantasy and comics fans all around the world.
