What happened to The Bionic Woman star Lindsay Wagner?
- Recent acting and voice work — Wagner has not retired. She voiced Amelie in Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding (2019), a role that introduced her to a new generation of fans.
- Advocacy and authorship — She leads “Quiet the Mind & Open the Heart” retreats, wrote books on wellness, and speaks at events about human potential.
Wagner’s public-facing life in 2024 revolves largely around fan conventions. Her official events page lists appearances at the Indiana Comic Con (March 22–24, 2024), the Huntsville Comic and Pop Culture Expo (April 12–14), The Hollywood Show (June 7–8), Supanova Comic Con in Sydney and Perth (June 2024), Retro Con in Oaks, Pennsylvania (September 7–8), and FanX Salt Lake Comic & Pop Culture Convention (September 26–28).
These meet-and-greet events offer fans autographs, photo opportunities, and panels where Wagner reflects on her career. At Retro Con 2024, she appeared alongside Lee Majors for a reunion Retro Con (pop culture convention).
Wagner’s convention circuit isn’t just nostalgia — it’s a deliberate choice to stay connected with fans while building a second act as a speaker and wellness advocate. The demand for her presence suggests the Bionic Woman brand still carries cultural weight.
Beyond the convention floor, Wagner’s advocacy work remains central to her identity. The AAE Speakers Bureau (speaker booking agency) describes her as “an actress, advocate, mother, and author committed to exploring and advancing human potential.” She has long promoted holistic health and body-mind-spirit themes, appearing as a keynote speaker at corporate and wellness events.
Wagner also published books on these themes. While specific titles aren’t listed in recent reports, her official site highlights her work as a published author.
Is Lindsay Wagner still married to Michael Brandon?
- Marriage timeline — Wagner married British actor Michael Brandon in 1976. They divorced in 1979.
- Children from the marriage — The couple had two sons together.
Wagner has not remarried since the divorce. She has kept her personal life largely private, with no public romantic relationships reported after Brandon. Her son Dorian Kingi has appeared with her at conventions, including a FanX 2024 panel where they answered fan questions together YouTube (fan-recorded panel).
The marriage and divorce are well-documented, but Wagner rarely discusses them in interviews. Her public focus remains on her career and advocacy.
What role does Lindsay Wagner play in Death Stranding?
- Character details — Wagner voiced and provided the likeness for Amelie, a central character in Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding.
- Collaboration with Hideo Kojima — The game was directed by Hideo Kojima. Wagner’s involvement was announced in 2016, building anticipation among fans.
Death Stranding, released in 2019 for PlayStation 4 and later on other platforms, is a post-apocalyptic action game with a star-studded cast including Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, and Léa Seydoux. Wagner’s role as Amelie — a mysterious young woman with ties to the game’s fractured world — was praised for its emotional depth.
For Wagner, the role marked one of her most prominent video game appearances. It also introduced her to a younger audience unfamiliar with The Bionic Woman. According to Retro Con, the casting was a highlight of the game’s promotional campaign.
By stepping into the gaming world, Wagner gained a new fanbase but also set high expectations for any future roles. Her next unconfirmed project on IMDb suggests she may continue in this space.
The pattern: Wagner’s willingness to cross media boundaries has kept her relevant across generations, from 1970s TV to 2020s interactive storytelling.

Both actors remain active in public life. Majors, known for The Six Million Dollar Man and The Fall Guy, appeared with Wagner at Retro Con 2024 in a reunion that delighted fans. Their on-screen chemistry as Steve Austin and Jaime Sommers defined 1970s television, and the convention circuit has given fans a chance to see them together again.

- Income sources — Wagner’s income comes from acting roles (TV, film, voice work), convention appearances, book sales, and paid speaking engagements.
