Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Matilda Lutz trained for six months in sword combat after producers saw her in Revenge (2017), another rape-revenge film.
This is the first Red Sonja film since Brigitte Nielsen's 1985 flop—Hollywood's been trying to reboot her for nearly 40 years through development hell.
