The Return Of Najara: Xena Warrior Convention

Xena_S04E08_110

It’s been quite a while since I wrote about Xena: Warrior Princess.  In fact the last time was a fun April Fools post about the possible return of the hit show and some crossover with the less than subtle Spartacus programme.  The lengthy menu on the left of this site gives links to our Xena-related posts.

Turns out that this year (2025) marks the 30th anniversary of Xena.  The show first aired in 1995!  Some of you were likely not even born at that time.  Jeez, I’m getting old!

To celebrate this milestone, a Salute To Xena convention is being held next weekend (31st Jan – 2nd Feb 2025) in the Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel in California.  That’s the same venue used for the Hollywood Show fan convention event back October last year.

Any why might you ask is this being posted on this site, other than just another excuse to post the image above?  That’s a good question which you’ve probably already guessed the answer too based on the title etc.

Yes, Kathryn is due to attend the event on both the Saturday and Sunday.  The leading ladies (Lucy Lawless and Renée O’Connor) are listed as being there on Sunday.

Thanks to AJ for passing on this information.  Apologies for the late posting of this and short notice.

I don’t know if the recent wild fires in California could impact the convention.  Please check the relevant places for more information.

If you are attending the event, please let us know.  We could put together a post with some of your experiences.

You can read more about the Salute To Xena event on the Creation Entertainment website HERE.

From Embers Available On Disc And Streaming

poster_001_2049x3000Kathryn’s recent return to the movies in the new film From Embers is now available to stream and even purchase on disc formats.  In the US of A at least.

Let’s start old school.

The American branch of Amazon is now selling the DVD and Blu-ray versions of the film.  It lists the release date as today (17th December 2024).  I don’t see it on the UK version of the site, but as I’ve said before it is possible to buy some things from Amazon US for shipping abroad.  Your Amazon account is valid on all international versions.  However, check the shipping to your locale is an option.

The DVD edition HERE.

The Blu-ray edition HERE.

For all you youngsters out there the film is also on the new hip sites like Amazon Prime and Vimeo (remember that one?).

On Amazon US Prime HERE.

On Vimeo On Demand HERE.

Apparently it is on other platforms such as YouTube, Apple, Google Play and others as well.

Just in time for Xmas.  And if you want to spend some more time with Kathryn on the small screen (let’s face it your TV is huge!) over the holiday period, go back and check out Hayseed.  Now available on Blu-ray on Amazon US for not a lot.  A very nice stocking filler!

American Cancer Society Gala

americacancersocietygala_003Bit of a surprise to stumble across this this morning.

Kathryn attended a charity gala supporting the American Cancer Society organised by Beauty-Stem yesterday (15th November 2024).

I don’t know anything about most of the other people photographed but the lady in red is English actress Victoria Summer (Saving Mr Banks).  She is a global ambassedor for Teen Cancer America.

The photos you see here are now in the KM UK Gallery HERE.

Update:  Kathryn appears a few times across this 3 minute Beauty-Stem promotional video on YouTube HERE.

Kathryn From Embers Interviews

poster_2049x3000Kathryn and the key members of the cast and crew of the new movie From Embers, gave a series of press interviews as part of the publicity campaign around the recent limited run theatrical release.

In each case Kathryn was able to explain how she was drawn to the project particularly because it portrayed a single mother with an autistic child.  Lead actress Kara Wang, plays that mother, the almost correctly spelt Lily :-)

I’ve pulled together links to 3 interviews in which various combinations of writer/director Kate Bohan, and actors Matthew Morrison, Kara Wang, Kayla Bohan, and Kathryn speaking to a journalist.

In no particular order they are:

Collider’s Arezou Amin chat with all of them HERE.

“…I felt like this movie did a good job of weighing out all of the different the genres that came together into one family story.”

Brandon Schreur of Coming Soon talking to just Kara and Kathryn HERE.

“Kate Bohan must have known to send it to me because a lot of people don’t know that I have twin sons on the spectrum. She knew that my heartstrings would be pulled.”

The Direct writer Russ Milheim interviewing the five HERE.

“So, I thought I just would love to be part of telling this story. Playing a character that is different. She’s a bit of a childless cat lady, and she’s supportive, but she’s complex.”
