McGowan Injury Delaying Red Sonja?

The latest rose mcgowan flick may be delayed for the second time due to an injury to Rose's sword arm.
Rose McGowan revealed that she had to get surgery on her left arm last month.

Yesterday, while at opening night of "33 Variations" she was quoted as saying, “I can’t even hold a fork right now, so I have to keep doing my physical therapy and work up to my sword,”

McGowan has a long list of injuries in the last few year. She has had to wear a cast on her leg and arm, including breaking her toes and having a car accident which caused her sunglasses to break, cutting her under the eye.

By the sound of it, no major filming of Red Sonja has taken place.

If true, this would be the second time the film has been delayed--the first being when Robert Rodriguiz wanted to do his own draft of the script.

Rose McGowan is also set to play a few roles in the hit tv show Nip/Tuck, the delayed indie picture Black Oasis, Terminator Salvation: The Video Game, and is also rumoured to be playing Ava Lord in the Sin City 2. She was even spotted wearing a bob haircut at Prop 8 Rally, and will also star in the Best Western Canadian Feature Film Fifty Dead Men Walking as grace--a Femme Fatale.

Didn't you hear me gargling for air Roar?!?!?! I was SINKING in freakin baby vomit because of her!!! Brigitte Nielsen pulled me out!!! Of all the people in the world... *gag*.

If this movie is made, it will probably be with someone else than rose. I have a feeling she'll never be able to swordfight in her near future. Something else is bound to happen to agravate her ingury. Hand job accident or something... Can't teach a bike new tricks apparently.

Rose McGowan as Red Sonja = The epitome of all Epic Failures.

I've heard she uses a Nerf Sword in this POS. Maybe thats how she has injured herself. LOL.

God don't like ugly...must hate her....

Ouch! Her momma must of sat the swing set a little to close to the house.

Only way I'll drop 7 bucks and fork over 2 hours of my time for this movie, is if Rose McGowan, is completely nude through this entire movie.

Never a fan or Rose as Sonja, or Rose in general, so this is not a problem for me; it just opens the door for an actress that can actually act with a skill level beyond that of a pouty three year old to play Sonja.

Some of the weakest casting in history happens when a director thinks with their dick. Rodriguiz should just consider this a gimmie, now he can let his horrible actress girlfriend out of the part and not get cut off. Bonus for Rodriguiz.

Was I too honest in that post?
nerosday - 3/11/2009, 12:05 PM
You are just keeping it real..say it like it is...
KeepItReal - 3/11/2009, 12:28 PM
I'll say it like it is! Rose will be taken off, she'll brake up with Rod because he won't wait after her to get better and they'll cast Meagan Fox for it! Mark my words... what ever that means.
Shaman - 3/11/2009, 12:33 PM
megan fox... he-hee.. not much better acting wise... but she does have her calender full w/two movies in the making...
KeepItReal - 3/11/2009, 12:35 PM
I'm not saying i'm recomending her for the part, FAR FROM IT IN FACT!!! I'm saying it's what's likely to happen given Hollywood's predictability :)

Dont care much for red sonja or rose...honestly i think the movie will suck....i'll prolly wait for it on dvd...the first one with bridget was okay my dad had the vhs...i dont think it was worth making a remake...i say let sleeping whores lie..lol..now guys do you realize posters are already up with rose as red sonja dont think we'll see any changes...its very rare for an actor/actress to have already been on the poster and then be replaced i dunno men...only time i can think of is when speilberg replaced some actor with michael J in back to the future with the movie almost half way done...that was crazy!!..best decision he ever made tho...

HHH, should be Red Sonja.

Yeah! I dropped the bomb and I'm running.
SirPrize - 3/11/2009, 1:36 PM
Red Sonja doesn't get hurt, what's up with day?
spanky - 3/11/2009, 1:43 PM
Actually, HHH has the build and the talent for the role. But he gets injured just as easily as Rose.
Shaman - 3/11/2009, 1:55 PM
Maybe Rose can play his stunt double.
SirPrize - 3/11/2009, 2:22 PM
I do see a resemblance between em prize
THEHAWK - 3/11/2009, 3:45 PM

SPANISHVEGETA - 3/12/2009, 6:45 AM
For the love of GOD, do not untie her!!!
Shaman - 3/12/2009, 7:41 AM
And feed her something while you're at it, for f#$%'s sake!
adamant877 - 3/12/2009, 4:35 PM
Dang, thats to bad.
TheSoulEater - 3/12/2009, 4:58 PM
dont worry everyone she is not malnourished she is being fed sausage every day by yours truly so she'll be up and about soon making appearences in all robert rodriguez's movies for the rest of her life y i gotta share her with him is crazy but i guess if it makes her career by sleeping with him it's cool as long as she comes back to my bed lmaoo
SPANISHVEGETA - 3/13/2009, 7:53 AM

Shaman - 3/13/2009, 8:01 AM
