Xena: Warrior Princess fans know her as Lucy Lawless' indomitable stunt double, but now Zoe Bell is grabbing center stage as the star of a new webisode series, Angel of Death.
Starting Monday, eight- to 10-minute Angel of Death adventures will be posted every weekday exclusively at Crackle.com through March 13. As seen in the trailer (embedded above), Bell, as ruthless assassin Eve, undergoes a crisis of conscience after someone sticks a giant knife in her head. In upcoming episodes, the hit-woman will seek to serve up a cold dish of revenge on her mob employers.
Angel is the latest creation from Eisner-winning comic book superstar Ed Brubaker. A Sony representative told Wired.com: "We met with Zoe Bell before we came to know Ed and really wanted to do a project with her. Ed's name started circling with some of our development people here and we thought the two would make a lethal combination."
Bell also appeared in several episodes of Lost and in Quentin Tarantino's "Death Proof" segment of 2007 pulp movie Grindhouse.
