From Lernaean Hydra to actual Hydra
Dust off your chakram because Xena herself, Lucy Lawless, has signed up for the second season of Marvel's Agents Of SHIELD. ABC’s series now doesn’t just offer connective tissue with the Marvel Cinematic Universe now, it’s forever bonded with Xena: Warrior Princess too. Sure, it may sound like a tenuous connection but try telling that to the Comic-Con brigade as the geek streams cross and potentially explode the planet.
Cylon Number Three in Battlestar Galactica, Lawless has also popped up recently in Spartacus and Parks And Recreation fans will have clocked her as Ron Swanson's other half, Diane.
Season two of Agents Of SHIELD will pick up with a potentially damaged Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) running the agency in Nick Fury’s (Samuel L. Jackson) stead. Lawless joins fellow newbie Patton Oswalt who plays Eric Koenig, a member of the World War II Howling Commandos in the comic books, and Ming-Na Wen, Melinda May, Elizabeth Henstridge and Iain De Caestecker.
Marvel's Agents Of SHIELD returns to ABC in the US and Channel 4 in these parts in September.
