"Xena" Coming Back? Lucy Lawless Teases Possible Return on Twitter
05/28/2013

You can't keep a good warrior princess down -- "Xena" may be coming back with a revival!

Twelve years after the series ended, Lucy Lawless took to Twitter to reveal a bit of news to make Xenites everywhere erupt in a joyous battle cry.

"Had an interesting call from a chap who wants to re-invigorate the #Xena brand. You guys may have started something."

"But there's a lot of red tape around #XWP so don't get your knickers in a twist. It may come back in a different form."

A fan then responded saying "@RealLucyLawless There's people who really gets hopes up with this kind of news Plz don't do that once again.Really hope this'll be truth."

Lawless answered back "it's too good a property to waste. I'll let you know when we know anything."

"Xena: Warrior Princess" ran for six seasons between 1995-2001.

Though the show ended with the title character dead, her spirit traveling with Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor), the characters were revived in a comic book series from Dynamite Entertainment in 2007.

Is "Xena" Coming Back? Lucy Lawless Shares an Update

Is the "Warrior Princess" about to stage a comeback?

"Xena" star Lucy Lawless has not been shy about discussing a potential revival of the cult-hit TV series she headlined from 1995-2001, and dished about the prospects during a recent live chat.

Lawless, who serves as guest editor of Friday's edition of The New Zealand Herald, previously tweeted in 2013 that she, "Had an interesting call from a chap who wants to re-invigorate the #Xena brand. You guys may have started something."

However, she quickly cautioned, "But there's a lot of red tape around #XWP so don't get your knickers in a twist. It may come back in a different form."

When asked what the latest with the revival was during a live chat on The New Zealand Herald, Lawless said, "It goes thru many incarnations. Sometimes I'm in it, sometimes I'm not!" and added, "Truthfully, I don't know where it's at. Rob Tapert is in communications so I can't ask the latest."

Lawless' husband, Rob Tapert, co-created "Xena: Warrior Princess".

The actress currently recurs on NBC's "Parks and Recreation" and said she'd "probably" be back for the show's final season and she received a letter from her on-screen husband Nick Offerman. "The man is a prince!"

Another revelation? She said she turned down a role in Sharknado.

So, what about a Xena movie, would Lawless be on board?

"Yes, but can I wear a mumu?" she said.
