Lucy Lawless On Her Shocking AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Debut

On last night's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D season 2 première we were introduced to new character Isabelle Hartley, who was played by Xena: Warrior Princess herself, Lucy Lawless. She made quite an impact, but her debut wasn't exactly what many of us expected! SPOILERS ahead..

Alas poor Agent Isabelle Hartley, we barely knew you. After debuting in style and making us all fall in love with her (that wasn't just me right?), Lucy Lawless' tough-as-nails mercenary was killed off at the end of last night's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 2 première. It was definitely a shocker for fans -- especially given that we'd just witnessed her pal Lance Hunter (Nick Blood) amputate her arm in the previous scene! But this being Marvel, is there any chance we could see Hartley return in some fashion? Lawless (a comic book fan who says battling the Absorbing Man took her back to her childhood) reckons it's definitely a possibility. "Absolutely," she tells The Hollywood Reporter. "It's whatever the writers want to write. All things are possible in SHIELD. That's what I love in this sci-fi comic world. There are no absolutes. There are no bottom lines. Every boundary is bendable." Would you like to see Hartley return? How about Lawless in another Marvel role? Check out the full interview at the link below.

She looked dead, but was she confirmed dead? Don't think so, or I missed something...she'll be a cyborg something or other...

The box did something to her just like it did to Whitehall, she will be back this season.

Did anyone else notice the box with the alien in it that got kicked closed really fast.

The Absorbing Man also had an alien arm in the season 2 set photos.

@SKOne: That's probably the same Kree body from Season 1.

Oh, and that twist ending was killer and sad all at once.

I was surprised at her abrupt exit, but let's be real: Lawless was a badass a decade ago. Today, not so much. I prefer her as Ron Swanson's wife on PARKS & REC.

If she doesn't return it would be a total waste of a great actress! @Batz11 & SKOne I hope we are correct and she returns, she makes one hell of a good villian!

Btw @SKOne: I'm pretty sure what we saw in the set pics for "Crusher" wasn't an Alien arm, it was just makeup for his own abilities.

Hey! What happened to my avatar???? Why is the old one back?

I was surprised how good the season 2 premiere was....IMO it was better than any episode in season 1. Im loving this whole Shield going under ground premise

She will be back. Heck the Hydra dude from 42 is still alive and the same age somehow. We dont know all what that alien artifact does... And poor Fitz...

The show killed off Xena.

What would be the point of cutting off her arm just for her to die minutes later -_- she'll be back.

Buccos clinched the playoffs last night. Only 1.5 games back from the Cards for the Central. yoss should be worried.

She'll definitely be back... Possibly as a villian, though I prefer not to see another butchered Deathlok character.

I'm so glad they committed to Fitz's brain damage. Hopefully Ward remains a villian throughout the season. He doesn't need redemption, he already has depth and thats all that his character needs to be interesting.

I'm not worried. I'm just happy we made the playoffs. We don't have the best team this year. We won't make it out of the first round with our offense and closer.

The odds of the Pirates winning the division are slim since the Cards end against the shitty D-backs.

Lawless was easily the most disappointing thing about last night's brilliant episode. Not a fan at all of how they characterized her. But, she's definitely not dead. The other guy...can't remember his name...he's dead. Lance Hunter is gonna be pissed, though. Not too sure where they're gonna take his character.

Is it Tuesday yet?
