• Probably the most famous use of Little Red Riding Hood in television advertising is the Chanel No. 5 commercial directed by Luc Besson with music by Danny Elfman and starring Estella Warren. In this advertisement, Warren plays a modern-day Red Riding Hood getting ready to enjoy the Paris nightlife, much to the lamentation of her household wolf. The commercial can be viewed here.
• Todd McFarlane's "Twisted Fairy Tales" action figure line includes a more voluptuous Red Riding Hood holding a dead wolf with its entrails and Grandma dripping out of its stomach. A similar but less gory figure is part of the "Scary Tales" line of figures (not by McFarlane).
• In the 2011 ABC TV Series Once Upon A Time, a different take on the tale was told during the episode "Red-Handed". The village they lived in was plagued by deadly were-wolf attacks and several hunters have been plotting to kill the beast. Red initially assumes that the beast was her boyfriend Peter so decides to tie him around a tree to help control him. Her plan eventually backfires when the beast was later revealed to be herself. Granny then reveals that it all started when she was bit by her late husband thus their children and grandchildren became wolves as well. She eventually lost the ability to turn at a later age but still has the scent. She had asked a wizard to make a red cloak for Red to wear in order to control it. In Storybrooke, Granny becomes the owner of the town's inn while her granddaughter, now named Ruby, is an unruly teenage girl who wants to leave town, but stays to care for her and help out with the family business. Red Riding Hood is played by Meghan Ory.
• On the show Grimm the tale is reimagined in the pilot. In it, a wolf/human creature is kidnapping young girls who wear red hoodies/jackets. He lures them by leaving a small figurine. The main character must find him after a little girl is reported missing on her way to her grandfather's house
• In Lego Minifigures (theme), a minifigure called "Grandma Visitor" is based on Little Red Riding Hood.
