PHOTOS Lucy Lawless as Lucretia from Spartacus: Blood and Sand on Starz
The latest addition to the epic historical drama series category is Spartacus: Blood and Sand, set to premiere January 22 at 10pm ET/PT on Starz. The cast includes John Hannah, Peter Mensah, Manu Bennett, Viva Bianca, Craig Parker, Jai Courtney, Erin Cummings and Andy Whitfield as Spartacus. But, none of them have the sexy period piece resume of Xena herself, Lucy Lawless! Lawless is playing Lucretia, a soap opera style sex-craving conniving vixen who wants what every soap opera style sex-craving conniving vixen wants: power and a baby. Judging from the lingerie-inspired costumes worn by Lucretia in these promotional photos, I’m thinking they might work in a plot where she founds the world’s first intimate apparel store called Lucretia’s Secret.
