Xena: Warrior Princess
PRINCESS IS P'D:
Lucy Lawless is happy to blast into space for a Sept. 9 guest role on Battlestar Galactica, but still is waiting to return to terrestrial butt-kicking in the long-discussed Xena: Warrior Princess movie, based on the syndicated
series that ran for six years. "I would love to do it," she tells SCI FI Wire, "[but] nobody can agree [on] who owns the rights, and it's a big fat pain in the a--." Should Xena ever ride again, Lawless is open to a campier take
on the feisty fighter. "It could be a good comedy," she allows. "Comedy always works." Unless you're Yes, Dear.
