Sept. 25 (UPI) -- Starz announced Thursday that the new series Spartacus: House of Ashur will debut on the streaming platform Dec. 5.
The series, a spinoff of Spartacus: Blood and Sand from 2010, will be available only on the Starz app, along with streaming and on-demand platforms.
The network also released new images of the show starring Nick E. Tarabay as Ashur, Graham McTavis (Korris), Tenika Davis (Achillia) and Jordi Webber (Tarchon).
