Thanks for sharing politicidal. I am kinda disappointed they didn't go with Gail Simone, Amy Chu or Marguerite Bennett to write the script 'cause they did offer their services and I feel they could have come up with something really good but one thing that has me on board with this writer is what he said here.

It’s an exciting opportunity to faithfully adapt the amazing Hyborean world Robert E. Howard created, and inject it with Sonja’s intelligence, ferocity, and fearless humanity. I want people to love Sonja the way I love her, and walk out of the theater understanding why she’s so popular and enduring. Sonja is an icon.”

THIS is what we need with a 'Red Sonja' movie. A movie that FAITHFULLY adapts the character and doesn't make it into some cheesy parody like the 80s movie did and has a Sonja who kicks ass and is on the same level that she is in the Dynamite Entertainment comic books which have been some of my favourite comic books of the past decade. Another thing that has me excited is some sites have said if it is successful they could make a sequel and 'Red Sonja' is a series that could easily have her own movie franchise if it is handled right and I would love to see Amy Chu's series set in the present brought to life too 'cause it is very unique compared to what we have seen with other movies and awesome to see her fighting monsters in cities and riding around on a motorcycle. I look forward to hearing what actress they choose for the role most of all and hopefully they announce that soon. This and 'Fathom' are the two movies I am waiting to see most now.

Is it sexist that I thought he was a woman?

No because both the original character Red Sonya and the alternate one Red Sonja were created by men.
You are on the right track.

Caligula: Do you think I'm mad?...Sometimes I think that I'm going mad. Do you — be honest with me — has that thought ever crossed your mind?

Claudius: Never. Never. The idea is preposterous. You set the standard of sanity for the whole world.
