If you grew up in the 1990s, no matter what sex, Xena the warrior princess was pretty much the ultimate girl crushes for everyone.
If you grew up in the 1990s, no matter what sex,Xena the warrior princesswas pretty much the ultimate girl crushes for everyone. It was autonomous, autonomous and a global badass. The show was a favorite of undeniable worship and ran for 6 seasons from 1995 to 2001. It was the ultimate fantastic action show, with a dose of girl power that was very necessary during this period. He follows the emblematic Xena (always dressed in his best warrior equipment) while she crosses ancient Greece. The show has never been afraid to push the limits of the manufacture of Greek mythology on television, and to date, even modern fantasy shows can not support the warrior princess.
With its sword and sandal, it is against the diabolic monsters, as well as non-human forces such as monsters and requests. Of course, the special effect was a little kitschy (it was the 90s after all) and, while the CGI is not quite the quality we have today, it was always impressive for its time, especially in relation to other shows of the time.
Xena appeared for the first time on our screens onHercules: Legendary trips. She played a malefic war of war on a mission to kill Hercles, played by Kevin Sorbo. His character arc was actually intended to end with his death, but the fans have so loved the character she ended up having his own series of spin-off!
WillXena go back?
Since all other shows and films get a restart nowadays, it is meaning that a nostalgic and beloved show likeXenaShould get his own restart in 2021. IfWonder WomanCould you get Gal Gadot for a viral cinematographic masterpiece that won $ 800 million, why is Xena did not reach his own dazzling reimagination, with larger budgets and modern technology? An icon like this one deserves so much more than the secondary characters Dorky, the Campy costumes and the Francly General which was inevitable for the moment, but relatively grinding worthy of watching now.
The 2015 restart that has never been
Back in 2015,Lost Alumni Javier Grillo-Marxuach was trying to get a xena reboot on the air. The relationship with Gabrielle in the show, played by Renee O'Connor, has always been considered a romantic, and we had to focus on the restart of Javier. On his Tumblr page, he wrote that there would be no point for a restart unless you explore this relationship in a less "subxtuelle way".
NBC took a difficult pass
Unfortunately, because of the focus on Xena's relations and Gabrielle, NBC has decided to transform the show. The network was not quite ready for a show centered on LGBTQ +, that Grillo-Marxuach politely set as "insurmountable creative differences". However, it remained hopeful that Xena was experimenting one day an awakening, as well as many of the fans of the origin of origin.
The NBC President Jennifer Salke said the idea of a reboot with a new lead was removed for the moment. She said:"Nothing happens on this now ... We looked at the material; we decided at that time that it did not justify the restart. I would never say on this one because it's A title as well-liked, but the current incarnation there is dead. "
A leakage script
In 2018, a pilot script for the restart feu online. The leak occurred on the Facebook page of the Xena Cinema Campaign, but according to the fans, the script was insufficient and, for the most part, disappointed. This is partly due to the fact that Hercules has become a less complex character and more of a "heartless mercenary", passing to a complete bad guy. However, others liked the fact that Xena's love and Gabrielle has been honored, but most fans emphasized that the show could never measure until the original without his first star Lucy Lawless.
Would Lucy be back from the Role Act?
Fortunately, fortunately, the legislation confirmed at Yahoo Entertainment in 2019 that it was inspired by seeing Linda Hamilton returned as Sarah Connor and thought the same life could be returned to Xena. However, Lucy admitted that she did not like how intensive the action scenes were, but would be willing to put her reserves aside for a big screen project. However, the actress also supported a new sheel-hero at the show, which she refers to "Junior Xena".
