“Felicia Day as Red Sonja, it’s basically a dream casting. No one I can think of can deliver the humor, the rage and ferocity like Felicia. Factor in the red hair, and she’s already Sonja. It’s two She-Devils for the price of one!” Simone tells PEOPLE.
Day, 45, will narrate the adventures of the fiery She-Devil of Hyrkania — decades after she was first introduced to Marvel and Dynamite readers.

Red Sonja is someone who “has never concerned herself with the consequences of her actions,” the synopsis reads. “She’s taken what she wanted, from treasure to drink to the companionship of bedfellows. She’s fought who deserved it (and sometimes those who didn’t). And she’s never looked back.”
Things change for the warrior when there’s talks of a new evil causing people to go missing in her homeland, one “emerging from the ground and pulling their unsuspecting victims to their deaths.”
