Spartacus: Gods of the Arena is a six-part mini series that has been announced by Starz and will air in January 2011 as a prequel to this year’s wildly successful Spartacus: Blood and Sand.
This prequel will act as a filler before the long-awaited second season resumes from where Blood and Sand left off. Production on the second season was halted after Andy Whitfield, the lead actor, was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Even January 2011 seems pretty far away for the large fan-base of the series, but they’ll have to wait. Hope Andy makes a full recovery soon and we don’t have to wait too long for the second season.
spartacus makes mens dreams come true: blood, violence and sex haha!
