The long-awaited Red Sonja movie reboot is one step closer to arriving on movie screens worldwide. The film’s release was delayed as the producers secured a theatrical release and an R-rating in the United States. Both these tasks have now been accomplished.
The character of Red Sonja was originally created as a supporting character for Marvel Comics‘ Conan the Barbarian comic series. Based on two historical heroines created by Robert E. Howard (Red Sonya of Rogatino and Dark Agnes), she was intended to act as a foil to the young Conan. Sonja grew to be popular in her own right, with her comics inspiring a 1985 film starring Brigitte Nielsen. However, the finished film took little from the source material, and was an infamous box office bomb.
Deadline confirmed that Samuel Goldwyn Films will distribute the Red Sonja movie reboot. The MPAA later confirmed the movie had been presented with an R-rating for “strong/bloody violence.” This indicates that the final film will be truer to the source material than the 1985 adaptation.

A release date for the Red Sonja movie reboot has yet to be specifically announced. However, it has been confirmed that it will be released during the later half of 2025. It has also been confirmed that the reboot movie will be based on the more recent comics, based on Red Sonja’s rebooted history in 2013. In her new origin, Sonja lost her family earlier in life and was not blessed by a war goddess in exchange for an oath of chastity.
Sonja smells swordplay and she’s out wielding her blade. Then she’s back to her sanctuary for some full penetration. Smells swordplay. Back to the sanctuary, penetration. Swordplay. Penetration. Swordplay. Penetration. Swordplay. Penetration. And this goes on and on and back and forth for 90 or so minutes until the tale just sort of ends.
Ya know, full penetration is the one major thing missing from all action movies these days guys.
