Exclusive: Wentworth Miller eyeing 'Spartacus'?

14 October 2010 12:03 PM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »

I’m hearing ex-Prison Break con Wentworth Miller has expressed interest in taking over the title role in Spartacus: Blood and Sand.

As I reported last week, the Starz series — which briefly considered “closing up shop” after leading man Andy Whitfield dropped out to resume treatment for his Non-Hodgkin lymphoma — is moving forward with the recast option.

But is Miller right for the part? Since his Fox series wrapped, he’s been largely out of the limelight. And when he has been spotted, he hasn’t quite been the picture of buffness that the sand-and-sandals epic demands. Of course, »

Please nooooo...

Television series 'Spartacus' has been famous for its sex and violence, and its season 2 will be sexier and more violent than the first.

The new season will begin next month and in the first episode itself viewers will be treated to beheadings, throat slashings, full-frontal nudity and countless sex scenes between masters and slaves, men and women.

"That's nothing, mate. I'm forbidding my parents to watch," Fox News quoted Lucy Lawless, 42, the New Zealander who shot to fame as Xena, as saying.

"Well, I'd like to-but unfortunately they're grownups, and I can't really tell them what to do.

"But I cringe to think of them watching the prequel," Lawless, who plays Lucretia, the wife of the owner of the gladiator school, stated.

The first season of 'Spartacus' told the story of the origin of the gladiator who became famous in the arena and then led a slave rebellion against Rome.

It debuted to more than 500,000 viewers-and then grew. More than 1.2 million viewers saw the season finale. (ANI)

Also... trailer da prequela.

Então mas esta é continuação da blood and sand ou é outra? é que da última vez que ouvi falar na blood and sand estava parada por causa da doença do protagonista, mas iam começar uma nova sobre o spartacus mais centrada no batiatus.

Mais ou menos, o Inglês não é propriamente o meu forte. Percebi que se fala ali da possibilidade do gajo do Prison Break fazer de Spartacus, o que acho uma má ideia. Mas se ja está um Spartacus a fazer essa nova... é aqui que surge a minha duvida! Se já há um novo Spartacus que tal manter esse? Precisam doutro para quê?

E não só. Quem é que faz de Spartacus nesse trailer?

Neste trailer não há spartacus...

ou melhor

Esta nova season vai ser centrar-se na casa de BATIATUS e certamente em como algumas das personagens como o CRIXUS, DOCTORE e ASHUR conquistaram a sua importância na referida casa.

:clap:

also...

:drool: Ilithyia :wub:

LIAM MCINTYRE CHOSEN TO PLAY TITLE ROLE IN NEW ‘SPARTACUS’

Australian film and TV actor Liam McIntyre has excelled at a grueling and rigorous audition process to claim the title role in the second season of Starz’ hit franchise, “Spartacus,” Starz, LLC, President and CEO Chris Albrecht announced today.

McIntyre takes over the role of the Thracian warrior sold into slavery in the Roman Republic city of Capua – where he rises to become the champion of the city – before leading the slave revolt that ended Season 1. The part was played in the first season of “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” by Andy Whitfield, who was forced to leave the show in order due to health issues. Whitfield gave his blessing to the recasting.

“Since no one can really replace Andy, we realized that we should instead find an actor who can truly lead ‘Spartacus’ forward,” Albrecht notes. “It was important to us to have Andy endorse the idea of recasting this part, which he did in the same heroic manner that he’s dealt with his whole ordeal. And that, coupled with our fortune in finding a young actor with the gladiator credentials and the acting ability of Liam, makes it easier for us to keep this hit franchise going.”

Liam McIntyre made his mark in his native Australia on such series as “Neighbours,” and “Rush.” He also appeared in the HBO mini-series “The Pacific.” He recently completed his first feature starring role in the independent film Frozen Moments. McIntyre is currently in New Zealand, getting himself into gladiator shape in order to take on that iconic role. Production on the series is slated to resume by Spring of 2011.

From the time “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” debuted on Starz in January, 2010, it established itself as an epic production with rich storytelling and visuals unlike anything seen previously on any TV show. Audiences responded immediately, making it the most-watched premiere in Starz’ history, and making the show the most watched cable program on nearly two-thirds of the Fridays it aired original episodes. Also starring John Hannah as Batiatus, Lucy Lawless as Lucretia, Peter Mensah as Doctore, Manu Bennett as Crixus and Viva Bianca as Ilythia, “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” was one of the most talked-about and best-loved TV shows of 2010. Season 2 of the series finds Spartacus and his fellow gladiators now out of Capua and engaged in the massive slave rebellion against Roman society that has echoed through time.
