WAR OF THE DAMNED

Sad news, all you SPARTACUS lovers! Speaking to "The Hollywood Reporter", Steven DeKnight, the show runner, has revealed that next year's third season will also be the final one! Aired in more than 150 countries around the world with high ratings, the show will start it's last season next January titled SPARTACUS: WAR OF THE DAMNED.

As you know, after the death of almost all major characters in the end of the second season, the last run of the show will see Liam McIntyre's Spartacus wagging war against Rome lead by young general Caesar (Todd Lasance). The decision to end the show in its highest was influenced by the real historical story of the slave rebellion against

Rome which was quite scattered all over the place with Spartacus fighting off waves and waves of Roman generals, which would make the show repetitive. That is why the producer is cutting out the boring parts and leaving the final battle against Spartacus to Marcus Crassus (Simon Merrells). In history, the story ends in a sad way for

Spartacus, but the producer is promising that they will give the final scene an optimistic hope to show that it is still worth standing up against oppression. How to find victory in the face of defeat and what happens when you win but you lose will be the main topics of the final season. There is also a possibility of JULIUS CAESAR spinoff if the character becomes popular among the audience.
