“Red Sonja” is well known to comic fans. Cinema municipalities also had to deal with her, because the first screening about her adventures went to theaters in 1985. It is no wonder that when the media reported that history would have a new cinema edition after more than 20 years after its premiere, fans were delighted. In the autumn of 2022, the network circulated the first photo from the production, which depicted Matilda Lutz known from “Vengeance” as the title heroine. However, this was the last news about production, and the film has not seen the light of day.
According to Deadline, “Red Sonja” is finally to hit theaters. Three years after the creation and lack of interest in distribution rights, the creators were to finally be able to sell the rights to a dozen or so countries. Among them are Great Britain and Ireland. For now, there are no United States and it is not known whether production will go to Poland. However, the very fact that it will eventually be able to show the work on the big screen shows that maybe Poles will eventually see screenings in native cinemas.
The figure of Red Sonji was created in the early 1970s for the needs of Marvel comics taking place in the universe of “Conan Barbarians”. Matilda Lutz was not a favorite after casting. Hannah John Kamen was trying on the role, but she had to give up the project because of other professional obligations. At the moment, nothing is known about the story. This is how the director says about Lutz’s project and engagement:
“I wanted to make a movie about Red Sonji since I was a teenager. She was a powerful figure for me, which I always wanted to transfer to the screen according to my own vision and what I have to say. When I met Matilda Lutz, I knew he had all the magic I was looking for . Reporter.
