Robert E Howard’s Red Sonja is set for a refresh with Robert Rodriguez as producer (I was kind of hoping that he will be directing) and Douglas Aarniokoski as Director. Rose McGowan will star as the red haired heroine. No firm release date as yet but slated sometime in 2009. From the looks of it I?d wager either for Christmas or even a 2010 release.

Whether the movie will suck or end up a cult favorite, it is still Rose McGowan in a metal bikini. And that alone is worth the ticket price. No official website link yet.

Speaking of which, keep your peeps out for the upcoming Tekken movie (currently in post production) starring Luke Goss as Steve Fox and Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as Heihachi Mishima. As with most video game to movie franchises, I am a little skeptical even if the movie promises some “high octane” R-Rated action, I still have my reservations. I don’t see a lot of hype going around with this one so far.
