I can think of three actresses in The Matrix alone who all have physical roles and are twenty billion times better at acting than Lucy Lawless. Carrie-Ann Moss, and the ladies who played Niobe and Switch (I don't remember their names). In Lord of the Rings, several of the Orc stunt-folks were women. Most of the Rohirrim were played by women (with beards glued onto their faces). Then there was Carrie Fisher in the original Star Wars trilogy, a fantastic actress in a strong role. There's Angelina Jolie from Tomb Raider, and a lot more that I can't think of off the top of my head.
