Now that he has completed work on the forthcoming summer blockbuster Conan the Barbarian 3D, producer Avi Lerner is letting it be known that he's ready to remake the 1985 sword-and-sorcery classic Red Sonja.

And he's putting The Informers and Drive Angry star Amber Heard in the tit-ular role!

A few years back, the word on the street was that Rose McGowan would be squeezing her knockers into the armor-plated bra and thong worn by Danish beauty (and future reality TV star) Brigitte Nielsen in the original flick.

But Amber's casting as the fierce firecrotch fantasy female is all but certain.

"Amber is the new Red Sonja," Avi announced, "but she doesn't know it yet!"

At 25 years old, Amber is already a Mr. Skin Hall-of-Famer and, as befitting a powerful female warrior of Red Sonja's stature, an out lesbian who makes no bones about her lust for girl-girl sex.

But the question remains: Will we find out if she's a natural Red Sonja?
