You likely know the name Lucy Lawless from the six years she spent in fake armor as Xena: Warrior Princess, but she’s actually a woman of many talents. This fall you’ll see a new one when her documentary Never Look Away premieres. It’s the first time Lawless has gone behind the camera to direct a project.
Never Look Away tells the story of Margaret Moth, CNN war correspondent. If you’ve seen the movie Civil War then you know what a tough job war journalism is; writers and photographers are often expected to venture deep into dangerous, volatile territory to capture historical events. The film includes testimonials from those who worked with Moth, the raw footage she captured from her adventures, and overall, the unbelievable story of her life.
After her first assignment to cover the riots that followed Gandhi’s assassination in India, [Moth] would go on to travel to the heart of the most dangerous conflicts in the world including the Persian Gulf War, the Bosnian War and the 2006 Lebanon War. However, underneath her fearless persona, candid interviews with colleagues and family reveal a self-destructive and emotionally fraught woman who would struggle when anything got in the way of her appetite for adrenaline and efforts to document the worst of humanity.
Never Look Away is set to premiere in theaters in England November 22, and presumably come to the US sometime after that.
By the way, Lucy now looks like this:
