Thor Star Jaimie Alexander Shares Red Sonja Movie Script Teasing Role

Jaimie Alexander hints she’s been cast in the upcoming Red Sonja movie by posting a picture of the script. The comic book heroine was partially inspired by Robert E. Howard’s character and developed for Marvel Comics by Roy Thomas and Barry Smith in 1973. Red Sonja is best known for her status as a “sword and sorcery hero,” as well as her trademark bikini armor. Brigitte Nelson first portrayed her for the big screen in 1985, though an updated take with a new actress has been in the works for some time.

A Red Sonja movie has been in development since 2010, back when it was in the hands of Robert Rodriguez with Rose McGowan attached to star. When that fell through, the project eventually landed with X-Men’s Bryan Singer. However, following the numerous sexual assault allegations leveled at Singer, he was removed from the film. In its current state, Red Sonja will be directed by Joey Soloway, who joined the project in 2019. Hannah John-Kamen signed on for the lead role in early May, making for the first bit of major progress to emerge in a while.

Now it looks like someone else has joined John-Kamen, though it isn’t necessarily confirmed. Alexander, best known for her roles in the Thor movies and on NBC’s Blindspot, shared an interesting tease earlier on Monday. While on a flight home, Alexander posted a picture of the Red Sonja screenplay’s front page and mentioned it was her “light reading” for the trip. If there was any doubt it is the movie with John-Kamen, Soloway and Tasha Huo are listed as the writers.

While this isn’t an outright confirmation that Alexander has boarded Red Sonja, it does look like that is what has happened. So far, John-Kamen is the only person to have officially signed onto the film, so there’s still plenty of roles left to fill. As Lady Sif in the MCU, Alexander has proven herself adept at fantastical action, and she could easily play an ally of Red Sonja. With little known about the plot, it’s hard to say who Alexander could be, but the possibilities are literally endless.

One thing is clear, though: The latest draft of the Red Sonja script is complete. John-Kamen’s casting didn’t provide any details about when production could begin, but it looks like the movie is assembling its supporting cast. Should the draft that Alexander read be the final one, Red Sonja could start filming later this year with an eye on a late 2022 debut. That would certainly be a welcome development, and hopefully more details will emerge soon.
