MGM+ has announced the premiere date for the history-bending Spartacus: House of Ashur, the next chapter in the legendary world of Spartacus. The boldly outrageous gladiator drama will premiere with two episodes and will be available to stream weekly beginning on December 6th, only on MGM+ across UK, Spain, Italy, Netherlands and Belgium. New episodes will stream weekly on Saturdays on MGM+. The original series, Spartacus, and all subsequent chapters are also available on MGM+.

The series stars Nick E. Tarabay (Spartacus, The Expanse), who reprises his role as Ashur, Graham McTavish (The Witcher, House of the Dragon) as Korris, Tenika Davis (Jupiter’s Legacy, Cabinet of Curiosities) as Achillia, and Jordi Webber (Choose Love, Prosper) as Tarchon, along with an extended cast of gladiators, nobility, villains, champions and backstabbers all eager to get ahead in the cutthroat world of Ancient Rome. The trailer can be viewed here.

Spartacus: House of Ashur is an erotic, history-bending, roller-coaster experience that builds on everything that made the original series a hit. What if Ashur had lived, and the Romans rewarded his treachery with the gladiator school where he once bled? Welcome to the House of Ashur. No longer a slave, Ashur has clawed his way to power, owning the same ludus that once owned him. But ruling a band of merciless gladiators is child’s play compared to surviving the savage world of Roman politics — a cutthroat game in which betrayal isn’t a sin, it’s currency. He flips tradition on its head by unleashing Achillia, a fierce and powerful gladiatrix eager to prove herself worthy in a man’s world. Together, they ignite a new kind of spectacle that shocks, disrupts and offends the elite with every drop of blood.

Previous Spartacus series are available on MGM+ to stream.
