Ive seen people talking about this in the past its known as the Red Screen of Death (RSOD)
This is the oldest topic ive found referring to the screen (You must login or register to view this content.)
It might be fixable yourself if you know what your doing with the insides of the ps3 like flashing the nand, if not then your kinda SOL
Sorry for the bad news but maybe you can look into it more than I did, just google 'ps3 red screen of death' you should be able to sift through and maybe find something.
Hope it helps, goodluck

Alright let me clear it up can you still use your ps3? Is the red screen only coming up when you try to update? If so then your still kinda in the clear..if its popping up as soon as you turn on the console then your bricked..
Id recommend going into the recovery menu and trying to **** around with that a bit, maybe do a system restore via recovery menu? No idea.
**dont hold me responsible if you end up bricking
