Lucy Lawless on 'Sleeping Beauty,' 'Xena' and 'Agents of SHIELD'

About Xena and AOS she says this:
As for a reboot of the show, Lawless won’t have much to do with it. Her husband, producer Robert Tapert, has been meeting with some who hope to reshape it in the image of The Hunger Games. “I wouldn’t be opposed to that at all,” she says. “Sometimes you just have to hand it off to a young generation and they know what they like.
Lawless has no plans to return to the series, nor does she expect to reappear as the no-nonsense veteran Izzy Hartley on Agents of SHIELD. Fans were ecstatic when she joined the show early in season two, but were outraged when she was killed off shortly thereafter. But still they hold out hope that in the world of Marvel, dead doesn’t always mean dead. “I knew she was dying before I went into it,” says Lawless. “It was kind of out of respect for [producers] Maurissa [Tancharoen] and Jed [Whedon], but if she comes back it would be because there happened to be a hole in my schedule and that it was a good through line for it. Unless they’re going to bump somebody off, they’re not bringing back Izzy Hartley in a way that is substantive.”
In her recent interview with Starry Magazine she says she's thinking about going back to American television, but didn't want to say more until she was signed on. If this is the case, she might not be in the second season of The Code.
