The Cast of Xena: Warrior Princess — Where Are They Now?

Although the show has been off the air for a couple of decades, a new generation of fans have been indulging in “Xena: Warrior Princess,” a silly, low-budget show that ran from 1995 until 2021. Believe it or not, this series, starring Lucy Lawless as the titular character, only contained 134 episodes, much to the disappointment of fans who wish they could have experienced more of the magic, hot fictitious takes on history, and plenty of sexual innuendoes.

One of the reasons why this show continues to attract viewers today is because the premise is still something that young people find appealing: a feminist hero in an ancient world who shows no fear and backs down to nobody. Although the Xena character has a sketchy history, she makes amends for what she did as she seeks redemption. This means taking down the baddies and helping those who aren’t strong enough to defend themselves. With that in mind, what is the cast of the show up to these days? Let’s take a look, shall we?

1. Lucy Lawless

You would think that being the star of an action/fantasy show would make it difficult for Lawless to find acting work that doesn’t involve letting out a battle cry and showing off her skills in weaponry. But you can find her in a variety of shows and movies that are decidedly not about warrior princesses, including the sitcom Parks and Recreation and the comedy-drama series Mr. Corman. She also had bit parts in films like Spider-Man and Eurotrip.
