   Here's Lucy Lawless' idea for that Xena: Warrior Princess reboot

   When news broke a few months back that 'Evil Dead' partners-in-crime Sam   
   Raimi and Rob Tapert (Lucy Lawless’ hubby) had signed on the dotted line to   
   allow NBC to develop a 'Xena: Warrior Princess' reboot, the Internet broke.   
      
   When asked if she had her druthers about the series if she'd be the one   
   playing the character again, and what sort of Xena TV show she’d like to do,   
   her answer was rather interesting, to say the least:   
      
       “If I had my druthers, it would be me in a one-off comedy with Renee   
   O’Connor,   
   Bruce Campbell, and Ted Raimi. Just a ridiculous kind of… Do you remember   
   the “Carry On” movies? They were British. It would be an American version   
   of, I don’t know, some insane, just getting-the-band-back-together for some   
   insane mission that we’re all on. We’re forced to bring one another back.   
   An   
   unusual alliance. We have to solve a great problem.   
       That would be my dream scenario. I would not play Xena, probably, in a   
   TV series because it’s just the physicalities. But I don’t know — it’s   
   amazing what they do with stunt people these days.”   
      
      
   But would Lawless actually consider playing the kickass Warrior Princess   
   again if the scenario demanded a passing of the baton of sorts (of either   
   the title or Xena name) to someone else? And if she could still be part of   
   the new reboot in some way? What about if there is a second-generation kind   
   of Xena? So many questions! Here's what Lawless said:   
      
       “Well, it would depend on are they going to honor the original intent of   
   the show? Which is about empowerment and honor of the individual. People who   
   are different, marginalized people, all that stuff. That’s the heart of the   
   show. So you have to keep that covenant.   
       I don’t know what they’re going to do or what they’re going to   
   write. So   
   it’s way too early to say whether I would jump it. Could be something   
   completely different. They could fill it with T&A — in which case, that for   
   me would be a deal breaker. It’s like, 'Over to you. Bye-bye.' ”   
      
               [[considering all the sex and nudity Lucy did in 'Spartacus'   
   seems like she would expect some T&A; new times, new reboot.]]
