It has been more than 20 years since Xena: Warrior Princess ended, yet fans have kept that war cry alive. And they’ve been happy to know the bond between the show’s titular hero played by Lucy Lawless, and her partner in adventure, Renee O’Connor’s Gabrielle, also remains strong.

The two actresses recently talked in an exclusive interview on Zoom about reuniting for the series, where Lawless teased about O’Connor’s role as the cult leader saying that she could be the bad guy or “the good guy in disguise.”

In the upcoming season two finale of Lawless’ cozy murder mystery series My Life Is Murder, O’Connor guest stars. To celebrate this momentous occasion we chatted with them both—and tried not to die—over Zoom.

Xena and Gabrielle are together again in New Zealand — albeit in a modern-day setting.

Lawless and O'Connor—who guest-stars on Lawless' crime dramedy My Life Is Murder—talk about potential Xena reboot ideas, Xena and Gabrielle's status as queer icons, and more.
