Lucy Lawless To Guest In Battlestar Galactica

Lucy Lawless (Xena: Warrior Princess) will be guest starring in an episode of the Sci FI Channel’s new version of Battlestar Galactica. Lawless will appear in the eight episode of season 2 of Galactica, “Final Cut”, which will air on September 9th. The episode was written by Mark Verheiden and directed by Robert Young.

In the episode Lawless plays the character of D’Anna Friel, a reporter given unlimited access to to the Galactica itself to document the stress of military life during wartime. Friel uncovers some major secrets and faces an ethical dilemma.

During the episode Lucy Lawless uses her native New Zealand accent, the first time in almost 20 years. According to Lawless

“I’ve never wanted to use my real voice before. It never seemed appropriate, and I was resistant to it. But for this role as a reporter, it seemed appropriate.”
