My Life Is Murder Set for Second Season

The murder mystery drama series My Life Is Murder, starring Lucy Lawless (Top of the Lake, Spartacus, Xena: Warrior Princess), is getting a second season.

The new season has been greenlit by a consortium consisting of AMC Networks’ streaming service Acorn TV, which will take a package of English-speaking rights (North America, the U.K. and Australia premiere rights with secondary rights for New Zealand), DCD Rights for rest of the world and producer Greenstone TV, with New Zealand broadcaster TVNZ and Network 10 in Australia also on board.

The 10×1-hour series moves from Melbourne, Australia to Auckland, New Zealand and is currently in preproduction, starring Lucy Lawless alongside her season one cohort Ebony Vagulans (Doctor Doctor, The Letdown, The Furies).

My Life Is Murder stars Lawless as private investigator Alexa Crowe, who brings her unique brand of investigation to an unsuspecting New Zealand.
