Amazon High

This was the pilot movie made for a series called Amazon High, in which a present day high school student goes back in time to the early days of the Amazons. The movie was filmed back in late 1997 and was directed by Michael Hurst, but has never aired and did not get picked up for a series. Information known about it has been sketchy and the only cast mentioned has been the main players, Danielle Cormack, Salma Blair, and Karl Urban, all of which had made appearances on Xena: Warrior Princess or Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.

Some of the footage from this pilot movie appeared in the fifth season of Xena: Warrior Princess in the episode "Lifeblood." This Xena episode was basically a clip show which used the footage from the failed pilot and intermingled it with new footage filmed for Xena. This episode was first aired on the 18 March 2000 in the USA.
