STAN WEEKLY NEWS UPDATE

RETURN TO THE ARENA. ​THE NEW GLADIATOR SERIES SPARTACUS: HOUSE OF ASHUR PREMIERES TODAY, 6PM AEDT.

Spartacus: House of Ashur is a thrilling, erotic, history-bending, roller-coaster experience that builds on everything that made the original series a colossal hit. What if Ashur 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.

New series Spartacus: House of Ashur premieres today, 6PM AEDT and only on Stan.
