    Historical Blood-Action Drama. Looking back, the best way forward.
    Knowing, I was worried about the fate of SPARTACUS. But 'Gods of the Arena' didn't disappoint. We are given further insight into some of our favourite characters with focus on the rise of the Ludas. The quality acting & a story which is delivered at a faster pace enthrals the viewer. It left me wondering - In a room full of villains, is our bad guy just an ambitious man?
