Amazon Conan Cancelled, Bryan Singer for Red Sonja, He-Man Back at Mattel


Published on Sep 28, 2018
There have been many recent news concerning sword and sorcery adapations as of late, not all equally good.

In this video, @AndreEinherjar will cover Amazon passing on Ryan Condal’s Conan series, Bryan Singer being in talks to direct Red Sonja and the controversies that will ensue from that, the relation between Conan and Red Sonja, and finally; how Sony threw in the towel: He-Man and The Masters of the Universe, alongside Barbie, are back at Mattel.

A.R. | 78 comments I think the last Conan movie may have hurt the chances for Conan being used in film or tv for quite some time, though hopefully, that will not prevent future fantasy endeavors thanks to shows such as "Game of Thrones" being so popular.

When people in charge are finally able to forget how badly the last Conan film tanked--he might get another chance. But I think it's going to have to be a new character to bring sword and sorcery back to the big screen--I would love to see a Drizzt movie!
