NBC has placed Javier
Grillo-Marxuach in charge of writing and producing the upcoming reboot of Xena:
Warrior Princess for them. Grillo-Marxuach best-known projects are Syfy's
Helix, ABC's Lost, and NBC's Medium.
The project, which will
not star Lucy Lawless in the role that made her famous, is being developed by
original co-creator and Lawless' husband Rob Tapert and Sam Reimi in their
Ghost House Pictures production company as well as NBC International Television
Studios.
Details on the new
show are scarce since development has only just begun, but the new Xena is said
to need to have the charisma of Lawless and the smarts of Katniss from The
Hunger Games franchise.
