Le sigh. Another one for the chopping block. What is Hollywood's allergy towards redheads?

Heck I'd rather see Frankie Adams, at least she is 6 feet tall and is much more believable as a warrior.

You could call it "Red Sheila"

I wonder if they will spin the Red as meaning "covered in red blood from battle" or somesuch instead if referring to her hair color.

I think you're giving the writers too much credit. I bet they never even bring it up beyond the title of the movie.

Definitely getting Red Sonja vibes looking at some random Google pics, lmao.

Well at least they can tick that "diversity" checkbox, I guess.

Well she certainly has the feet of a hardened Norse warrior-maiden. Dunno about the rest. Also, who doesn't cut their nasty ass long bat-toenails before getting a photoshoot?

Ok this went from coincidence to malicious. Why is Hollywood replacing all Redheads with black women? Like, this weird hate for them, but weirder still, it's always a black woman.

Anyway, this movie will bomb, lets be honest.

Take that male gaze!

I can see it in the face a little bit. Definitely way too skinny for someone in the Conan universe.

I don't really see her as black so that's a non issue to me. There's no way she's got the n-word pass.

Besides, Hollywood has never cared about red heads. Look at Aquaman or The Inhumans. If the part isn't right for Jessica Chastain or Bryce Dallas Howard then they sleep on natural redheads. Other famous "redheads" are typically blonde in reality.

Jesus that stare. I feel like I did something wrong.

Also, this casting sucks.

Literally all these idiots had to do was look at the best action redhead in the biz:

 

[BigBooper]

Why not?

 

[QuantumZebra]

Why not?

She's hot af but Jessica Chastain has the action chops and is more built for it.

 

[Great Hair]

Russ Meyer is confused.
"That´no VIXEN!"

 

[Ironbunny]

Why Oh Why

Get Jessica Chastain for a 6 month body building course and cast her.

What about the tall bird from GoT
