SPARTACUS EPIC SEQUEL SETS CAST

Jordi Webber will be one of the gladiators

After announcing Nick Tarabay as the lead, Starz epic series SPARTACUS: THE HOUSE OF ASHUR has added eight more actors to the cast. The ten episode series coming from Steven DeKnight is now shooting in New Zealand.

  The series poses the question: what if Ashur hadn’t died on Mount Vesuvius at the end of Spartacus: Vengeance? And what if he had been gifted the gladiator school once owned by Batiatus in return for aiding the Romans in killing Spartacus and putting an end to the slave rebellion?

Graham McTavish will play Korris, a former gladiator who won his freedom in the arena and is now Ashur’s Doctore, training the gladiators in Ashur’s Ludus. Tenika Davis plays Achillia, a female gladiator driven to surpass her male counterparts. Jamaica Vaughan plays Hilara, a young, elevated house slave, deeply in love with Ashur. Ivana Baquero plays Messia, a house slave in love with Hilara. Jordi Webber plays Tarchon, a brash and headstrong gladiator. Claudia Black plays Cossutia, a politician determined to keep Ashur in his place and is constantly plotting his downfall. India Shaw-Smith plays Viridia, Cossutia’s daughter. Leigh Gill plays Satyrus, the leader of the Brothers Ferox, gladiators from a rival Ludus.
