But Red Sonja is white. Isn't that problematic?

Indeed.

Just wanted to make sure poo poo was consistent :)

Which comic? WW's had a fair few contradictory origin stories, I thought being sculpted from clay was the original one, I heard being strongly implied to be a child by rape from Hercules was more recent.

Hippolyta raped by Hercules is Grant Morrison's retcon of WW's origin in Wonder Woman: Earth One (2016). WW's origin in The New 52 (2011), which the 2017 DCEU film borrows from, is where she's the child of Hippolyta and Zeus. In The New 52, Hippolyta keeps this a secret from Diana, telling her that she was sculpted from clay instead. As BrianWilly said, Diana being legit sculpted from clay is her origin that lasted for a good long while. I've recommended George Pérez's 'Gods and Mortals' to anyone wanting to see/read Diana's OG origin story, and then watching the 2009 animated film after because it's one of the best DC animated films :)

'Wonder Woman' Wraps Up With $411M Domestic, $819M Worldwide box office. Amazing run. I imagine the hype train for the sequel is gonna be huge and push Wonder Woman into the billion dollar box office.
