The new “Xena” is being billed as “modern reboot” of the series, which was a “Hercules” spin-off that went on to become a cult hit.

It is unknown if Lucy would be involved in the project, but a THR source claimed that the actress is wanted for a role both onscreen and off in the project.

However, the actress painted a different story on Twitter.

“Sorry, friends! news of a #Xena reboot is just a rumor. I’d love it to happen one day but it’s still in the wishful thinking stage,” the actress wrote.

THR reported that the new version of Xena would be a cross between the original character and Katniss Everdeen from “The Hunger Games,” dubbing Xena 2.0 as “a sophisticated and smart superhero for a new generation.”

The original series ran from 1995 to 2001.

Access has reached out to NBC for comment on the reported “Xena” reboot.
