July 11, 2024 by Marisa Roffman
Starz has added to the cast of its upcoming series SPARTACUS: HOUSE OF ASHUR. They join the previously-cast Nick Tarabay, who is reprising his role of Ashur.
Here’s who has joined the series as regulars and who they’ll be playing…
- Graham McTavish plays 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 Baqueroplays 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.”
SPARTACUS: HOUSE OF ASHUR will “be a history-bending, erotic, thrilling, roller-coaster experience that builds on everything that made the original series a colossal hit. The series poses the question: what if Ashur, played by fan favorite Nick Tarabay, hadn’tdied 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?”
This marks the fifth series in the SPARTACUS franchise; Steven S. DeKnight is serving as showrunner. Production has begun in New Zealand.
