Though STARZ's ten-episode series Spartacus: House of Ashur won't be hitting screens until the fall, fans of the franchise attending this year's San Diego Comic-Con 2025 (SDCC 2025) are going to get a chance to learn a whole lot more about what the series has to offer. Moderated by Liam McIntyre (Spartacus, The Legend of Hercules), who played Spartacus in Seasons 2 and 3 of the original series, the panel will include executive producer Steven S. DeKnight and stars Nick E. Tarabay, Graham McTavish (Korris, Ashur's Doctore), Tenika Davis (Achillia, a fierce gladiatrix), Jordi Webber (Tarchon, a brash and headstrong gladiator), Jamaica Vaughan (Hilara, a young, elevated house slave, deeply in love with Ashur), and Jaime Slater (Cornelia, the ruthless wife of Julius Caesar). Here's a look at the official overview of the SDCC 2025 panel, taking place on Saturday, July 26th:
"A Return to Ancient Rome with 'Spartacus: House of Ashur' – A First Look with the Cast and Creator": Spartacus: House of Ashur explores what would happen if the ruthless, double-crossing Ashur had not perished on Mount Vesuvius and instead was rewarded by the Romans for betraying Spartacus. Now the owner of the very gladiator school to which he once belonged, Ashur must learn how to navigate a world just as brutal as the arena — Roman politics and nobility. Join the cast and creative team as they discuss the legacy of the original "Spartacus" series and dive into Ashur's alternate fate in the epic new series. Saturday, July 26 / 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm PT / Indigo Ballroom, Hilton San Diego Bayfront
