Rising screenwriter Tasha Huo has come on board as the new writer of the long-gestating “Red Sonja” reboot for Millennium.
“Transparent” creator Joey Soloway serves as director on the sword and sorcery project, taking over in 2019 from Bryan Singer who was dropped by the studio.
Soloway says in a statement: “There could not be a greater moment in our world for Red Sonja’s ways of wielding power and her connection with nature and our planet. She is an ancient heroine with an epic calling, and translating that to the screen is a dream come true for me as a filmmaker. I can’t wait to collaborate with Tasha on this vision.”
Casting on the film is set to begin immediately. Mark Canton, Courtney Solomon, Christa Campbell and Lati Grobman produce.
Huo is showrunning and executive producing an upcoming animated “Tomb Raider” series for Netflix and Legendary.
