The Surprising Way Lucy Lawless Pictures Ruby's Ending in Ash Vs. Evil Dead

When "Ash vs. Evil Dead" wrapped up with Episode 10 on April 29, 2018, Ash woke up in a post-apocalyptic future after defeating the evil beast Kandar the Destroyer, ready for future adventures with his newly weaponized Oldsmobile Delta '88. Some characters met their fate in the episode prior, though, including Lawless' Ruby. As it turns out, Ruby was a member of the menacing, otherworldly group The Dark Ones and was responsible for writing the Necronomicon. Ruby, however, met her demise when The Dark Ones claimed her soul.

Because no character is really ever dead in the "Evil Dead" universe, where would Lawless like to see Ruby go if a fourth season of "Ash vs. Evil Dead" miraculously happened? In an exclusive interview with Looper to talk about her new film, the medieval animated fantasy "The Spine of Night," the sci-fi and fantasy icon mulled over the question of Ruby's return before coming up with a surprise answer that had nothing to do with the character being evil. 

"What would Ruby be doing? I don't know. Maybe she'd come back as a nice girl who's forgotten her evil ways and be madly in love with Ash, and that would give him the collywobbles," Lawless enthused.
