ComicCon: Lucy Lawless Brings Three Back To Battlestar Galactica

You can’t keep a good – or bad depending on your point of view – Cylon down. At the ‘Battlestar Galactica’ panel at Comic-Con this year Lucy Lawless made a surprising appearance, walking on stage to join her fellow cast mates. Fans had wondered if Lawless would be reprising her role as D’Anna in the upcoming final season of the series. ”I’m coming back to cause some trouble,” Lawless told the fans.

Details on D’Anna’s return are being kept under wraps, but when she does Ronald Moore will have some explaining to do. Last season the Cylon model Lawless portrayed was “boxed” by the Brother Cavil model. The effect is the closest thing to death that the Cylons experience. Essentially everything about her particular model has been sealed away. Why and how she comes back will be interesting. I’m guessing that Baltar and Six will somehow be involved in that plan.

Moore said that D’Anna’s return is planned for around episode 10, and Lawless is signed for 2 or 3 episodes. He also reinforced the idea that the Cylons actually do have a plan, and D’Anna is a part of it. ”We will unbox her and spring D’Anna forth!”
