That's the type he and Sam Raimi created with ''Hercules'' and ''Xena.'' It's large-scale, fantasy adventure, with a pure soul at the core.
Now it's back. ''Legend'' has the same producers, setting (New Zealand) and approach that ''Hercules'' and ''Xena'' had, with one exception:
''We're going out of our way to [avoid] the postmodern aspects,'' Tapert says.
Those old shows often had a nudge and a wink; ''Legend,'' based on the Terry Goodkind novels, goes for a straightforward sense of awe and magic.
Richard Cypher is a woodsman in a world shielded (literally) from others. A sorceress, Kahlan Amnell, pierces the shield with bad guys
behind. Richard is the Seeker, she says, the first in 1,000 years. He has the power to confront evil tyrants, led by Darken Rahl.
