LUCY LAWLESS RETURNS FOR AN ALL-NEW SEASON OF ACORN TV'S "MY LIFE IS MURDER"

Season 5 of the Hit Crime Drama Currently in Production in Auckland, New Zealand and Set to Premiere Later This Year

Oscar(R) Nominee Keisha Castle-Hughes (Whale Rider, Game of Thrones) and Rhys Darby (Our Flag Means Death, Flight of the Conchords) to Guest Star

NEW YORK - February 7, 2025 - Acorn TV has commissioned fan-favorite mystery drama My Life Is Murder for a fifth season, set to return later this year. Starring Lucy Lawless (Spartacus, Xena: Warrior Princess) as the fearless and unapologetic investigator Alexa Crowe, each season sees her solving puzzling cases in Auckland, New Zealand with a little help from her witty friends.

Season 5 sees eight thrilling new cases featuring dangerous villains that only Alexa Crowe (Lawless) can catch, but as always, she's bringing her friends and family along for the ride. Tech guru Madison (Ebony Vagulans, The Furies) is stepping up and contributing her considerable technical skills to the investigations, while cafe owner Reuben (Joe Naufahu, Game of Thrones) is always there to lend a helping hand, and, shockingly, it turns out that Detective Harry (Rawiri Jobe, Shortland Street) has been hiding a rather big secret. Moreover, just to complicate things, Alexa's bad boy brother Will (Martin Henderson, Virgin River) drops by with a dilemma of his own. Additionally, in the series' highest-stakes episode to date, Alexa's beloved cat Chowder is caught up in a risky game of cat-and-mouse!

Joining the cast this season as guest stars are Oscar(R) nominee Keisha Castle-Hughes (Whale Rider, Game of Thrones, FBI: Most Wanted) and Rhys Darby (Jumanji: The Next Level, Flight of the Conchords, Our Flag Means Death).

My Life Is Murder is a Greenstone TV production for TVNZ and Acorn TV and DCD Rights Ltd. made with the assistance of the New Zealand Screen Production Rebate. The series' executive producers are Rachel Antony, Claire Tonkin, Lucy Lawless and Harriet Crampton; Nicky Davies Williams and Pilar Perez for DCD Rights; and Don Klees for Acorn TV.
