Lucy Lawless has been hinting that there may be a relaunch of the fantasy series, "Xena Warrior Princess", sometime in the future. Lawless has also made it clear that she hopes the show will begin shooting sooner than later.

The last thing that the 40 year old New Zealander wants is to be replaced by a younger actress. Lawless recently told the press, "It'll have to happen fairly soon. If it takes much longer, they'll cast some 20 year old in the role and ask me to play the mother. I'd tell them to go to hell, or worse - I'd do it."

Continuing on with the story line from the original series may prove to be a little difficult. Fans should remember that the last time we saw the "Warrior Princess" she was.......well.......dead. Of course, this generally isn't a problem for a character in this series, both Xena and Gabrielle have been killed and brought back to life several times.

However, in this case, the death was meant to be permanent. As the finale was written, some 20,000 peoples souls would be at stake if Xena were to ever be resurrected.

I'm sure the writers will figure out some way to get around that. They always do.

Lucy Lawless fans won't have to wait for the launch of a new "Xena" series to see the actress on TV, she is scheduled to play a madam in an upcoming episode of "CSI: Miami".
