Lucy Lawless is wederom erg populiar en duikt de laatste tijd op in diverse mini en TV series. Zo was ze recent te zien in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, The Code en op dit ogenblik in het tweede seizoen van Salem waar ze de uber witch bitch speelt. Bovendien zal de dit jaar ook nog te zien zijn in Ash vs. Evil Dead dus voor de website Collider reden genoeg om even een interview met haar te houden.


Collider: You've played some very strong and strong-willed characters, in your career. Is that something that you've just instinctively always been attracted to?

LUCY LAWLESS
: No, I've often wanted to play the victim, or somebody who makes terrible choices. I would love to play the alcoholic mother who horribly lets down her children. That's a great morally imperiled role. I want high stakes things, and often, the higher stakes can be found in this genre of television, like Xena, Battlestar Galactica, Salem and Spartacus. There's such high stakes, all the time.

Is it difficult to find characters that are different enough from each other that you want to play them, or do you just feel really lucky in the roles you've gotten to do?

LAWLESS:
I've never had that overview. I just look at what's the most fun thing I can do next. I'm not looking to prove anything, or to break out or to break away. I feel so lucky, honestly, that I'm still working and I'm still here. I don't think I really expected this, at this time in my life. You expect your career to just fizzle out, or something, and I've only gotten busier. I've got two shows, at the moment, and I'm really delighted.
