Lawless To Sub For Lucker

Lucy Lawless, one time Warrior Princess, has been cast as Tanya in Football Wives, Bryan Singer's pilot for an American refry of Footballer's Wives.

Zoe Lucker originated the role in the UK version at a camp panto-pitch far beyond the tolerance of any US TV network, and became both loved and hated for it.

See both Lawless and Lucker above for a contrast-and-compare. Can we divine anything of the new series' approach from this single vague variance in casting attitude...? Well, not much.
