Spartacus creator Steven S. DeKnight is expanding the franchise once again with a new series currently in development at Starz.
DeKnight will serve as showrunner and executive producer of the as-yet-untitled project. The next chapter will explore uncharted territory and new journeys of the original series’ iconic characters.
In the aftermath of the defeat of Spartacus and his rebel army in the series finale, the new drama will depict a new tale of treachery, deceit, and blood unfolding beneath the foreboding shadow of Rome. “It’s such an incredible honor to be invited to return to the world of Spartacus and to be met with unbridled creative support from my colleagues at Starz and Lionsgate,” said DeKnight in a statement. “Together we are crafting something truly unique and unusual for the next chapter in this epic story.” The expansion of the Spartacus franchise is the latest to follow this new trend among networks and streamers to attract new subscribers and viewers.
Deadline recently confirmed Showtime would be telling more stories around the Dexter and Billions universes, and Amazon is investing further in the Bosch franchise with two new shows in the works, to name a few examples.
