Lucy Lawless, one of Aotearoa's most iconic actors, takes part in Fast Favourites. Known for Xena: Warrior Princess, Pike River, and My Life is Murder, she's also a long-time advocate for environmental and LGBTQIA+ rights. In recent years she has stepped behind the camera, directing projects including her 2024 documentary Never Look Away and the new TVNZ crime drama Blue Murder Hotel. Lucy shares what an ideal Sunday looks like, how she balances life between New Zealand and the US, and what she's discovered as she moves from acting into directing.
