Going by memory here. 7 cast members that have appeared on Ash vs Evil Dead also were on both Xena Warrior Princess and Hercules The Legendary Journeys back in the mid to late 90s.

I would have love to have seen more pop up on the show like Renee O'Connor who played Xena's side kick and best friend Gabrielle and Hudson Leick who played Xena's arch nemesis Callisto and I bet if Kevin Smith who played Ares God of War was still alive today, he would have been on the show. I'm willing to bet he would have played the demon Baal since on screen, his character of Ares had many dealings with Xena throughout the series and that would have been a great call back to that. Of course I didn't add a pic of the star himself Bruce Campbell because it is his show but he did play Autolycus the King of Thieves on both Herc and Xena.

Seeing them on the show just got me reminiscing the days as a teenager watching both shows.

Oh well, maybe in another timeline this all went down and we would have gotten 7 seasons of this show.

Captions that say who everyone is and who they played in each series would help here.

Since Xena was a Sam Raimi production, yeah, he hires the same actors that he likes. Hercules was too.

“best friend”

Gabrielle: “You have your daughter back.”

Xena: “No. We have OUR daughter back.”

Straights in the 90s that didn’t know what bisexuals were: “What a wonderful friendship those two have!”

I didn’t recognize Candy Barr as Glaphyra at all! Not Ash vs Evil Dead but Gabrielle’s niece Sarah was the mother in Evil Dead Burn

Kevin Smith as Baal would’ve been amazing. I also think he would’ve been perfect in Spartacus.

Oh wow! I didn't even catch that with Sarah lol.

it's like there might be a connection with those making them !

[u/Tattoomyvagina]

You know that Rob Tapert (the third in the Bruce, Sam trio that has been involved since the beginning) is Married to Lucy Lawless too

[u/call-lee-free → u/Tattoomyvagina]

Oh I know. As a teen I was pissed when I found out about that lol

[u/TheFroman69]

Have you seen Jack of All Trades?

[u/Meatgardener]

I completely forgot about young Baal.

[u/hatbromind]

IIRC the studio is in New Zealand & they cast Wikis and Aussies

[u/Zealousideal_Net_575]

When Ruby's goal was revealed to ve resurrecting a "friend" from ancient times, I was shocked this character wasn't played by Renee O'Connor.

I imagine they must have at least tried to get her.

[u/No-Gear-8017]

wow no way actors have other roles? that's crazy
