'Spartacus: House of Ashur' trailer released

The trailer of Spartacus: House of Ashur has been released. It will follow Ashur, who died in the second season of the original series.

But in the forthcoming show, the makers have presented an alternate history where the logline reads, "What 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’s play compared to surviving the savage world of Roman politics — a cutthroat game in which betrayal isn’t a sin, it’s currency," it added.

"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," the synopsis noted.

Spartacus: House of Ashur is expected to be out this winter.
