Starz is making sure audiences know Spartacus: House of Ashur<\/em> will be as bloody and sexy as fans of the franchise have come to expect. The explicit red band trailer for the series, which bows on Starz Dec. 5, arrives more than a decade following the last entry in the Spartacus <\/em>franchise, and finds Ashur (Nick E. Tarabay) resurrected and now the master of his own house.<\/p>\n The trailer introduces the players in Ashur\u2019s life including gladiator trainer Korris (Graham McTavish) gladiatrix Achillia (Tenika Davis), and Tarchon (Jordi Webber (Choose Love, \u201cProsper\u201d), Julius Caesar (Jackson Gallagher) and Caesar\u2019s wife, Cornelia (Jaime Slater).<\/p>\n More from The Hollywood Reporter<\/strong><\/p>\n Watch the green band trailer below, while the uncensored red band trailer is only available on YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n Franchise mastermind Steven S. DeKnight showruns and executive produces, with Rick Jacobson and Aaron Helbing also executive producing.<\/p>\n The series takes place in an alternate history in which Ashur lived, rather than dying as he did in the finale of 2012\u2019s Spartacus: Vengeance<\/em>. The Spartacus <\/em>franchise dates back to 2010\u2019s Spartacus: Blood and Sand<\/em> and continued with Spartacus: Gods of the Arena<\/em> (2011), Spartacus: Vengeance<\/em> (2012) and Spartacus: War of the Damned<\/em> (2013).<\/p>\n Here\u2019s how Starz descsribes the new show: \u201cWhat if he 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\u2019s play compared to surviving the savage world of Roman politics \u2014 a cutthroat game in which betrayal isn\u2019t a sin, it\u2019s currency. He flips tradition on its head by unleashing Achillia, a fierce and powerful gladiatrix eager to prove herself worthy in a man\u2019s world. Together, they ignite a new kind of spectacle that shocks, disrupts, and offends the elite with every drop of blood.\u201d<\/p>\n Best of The Hollywood Reporter<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for THR’s Newsletter<\/a>.
