End scene? Lucy Lawless reveals My Life is Murder role will likely be her last
New Zealand actor Lucy Lawless says her current TV role will likely be her last on our screens.
The 54-year-old told Francesca Rudkin on Newstalk ZB’s The Sunday Session that she has no acting aspirations beyond playing private investigator Alexa Crowe on My Life is Murder.
“I think Alexa may well be my last role. This is it. I love her and I’ll keep doing her for a little while … I don’t have a dream of acting out there,” she said.
“For right now, Alexa is it and I enjoy it and I’m proud of the work and I love the way my city looks [in My Life is Murder]. I’m proud of Auckland and nobody ever got to see her looking so good before.”
I consider Lucy Lawless in the highest of regards.
She has used her fame and her platform to rebel against climate change and her activism is unparalleled amongst NZ celebrities.
If she is serious about stepping away from acting, and let’s take a moment to appreciate her incredible body of work and how hard a decision that must be (and what a loss for us is is), now is the time for Labour or the Greens to pounce and offer her entry as a politician because deep down I believe her passion is climate change and she wants real meaningful and transformative change on this front.
She has the intellect, the oratory and the profile to be an incredible politician who is driven by core beliefs on the climate crisis.
Labour and the Greens should be on the phone to her now!

She’d be perfect
LOL. Please, please, please Labour. If the good doctor got the shits with the fuckery going on by Smith & Jones Zena won’t last 5 minutes in the party of rainbows and unicorns.
“Celebrity” type politicians in NZ have been a mixed bag really over the years–Pam Corkery anyone?
But Lucy does have credibility. I have seen her at a number of actions, and public demos and charity gigs etc. and she does not behave like a big noter at all, and is indeed inarticulate and not a bloody right winger, which has to be a good start for a political career.
I’m all for her being nominated, but has she got the woke credentials to succeed in the woke Green Party with rainbows and unicorns and critical woke race theory?
Here is a tutorial.

Yep I was thinking, she’d be in for a rude awakening if she joined the Greens thinking it cared about Climate change.
As long as she goes all Zena on BMW Jimmy it will be worth it.
Shes an ex-mining prospector, tough and competitive and comed from a political family. She’d could be quite good!
She was amazing in Spartacus, Battlestar Galactica and of course her titular role, Xena Warrior Princess.
All shows of renown.
