  • the new guy cant compare to andy whitfield but i think he was a great choice

  • Dear STARZ,

    why have you deleted the original long-form Comic-Con teaser from your channel?

    Sincerely,

    YouTube

  • This serie is so awesome, that it needed to have a trailer for the upcoming trailer!

  • Does anyone know the song? It was also in the first long form trailer released but now I can't find that one.

  • i realy just came here because im sad ): rip andy. Thanks for this great season:)

  • I didn't even know it was a replacement until today! Holy shit, still great acting.RIP Andy.

  • Gannicus is badass.

  • Jupiter's cock!

  • I'm all good with the new guy as long as there's plenty of Ilithyia shaking that ass.

  • ma i sub ITA!!!!?????????

  • non vedo l'ora!!!!!!!!!

  • "I am Spartacus"

    Nope, Chuck Testa!

  • they should change history, kill Spartacus and make Gannicus lead the rebellion...

  • @Frengomat sadly that cant be done cause spartacus is an actual historic charactre. still Liam is not as good as andy but...we'll see what he can pull off, he has HUGE shoes to fill, i dont really want to give him a chance, but if he was picked to keep up andys' work then he must have something, so we'll see

  • As sad as Andys death is, he died in the arms of his wife. You cant ask for a better death then that. Being held by the person you love most in the word...

  • Those bashing the new guy should think about this. If you truly are so loyal to Andy, you need to know andy was proud to pass the torch onto the new guy. It was stated in one of his interviews that he believed this guy could do the role and do him proud. Even before Andy passed away this man was already chosen to take on the role. Relax everyone =/ If Andy trusted him I am sure he deserves a chance from all of us to right? The new guy said he will do his best to honor Andy's legacy of this show

  • @fafnir9690 Thank you could not have said it better myself. I already wrote this earlier and somewhere else but it''s worth repeating. People who are bitching and threatening to not watch the show are full of shit and they WILL watch it. If so just so they can have something else to bitch and complain about online. And they will keep on watching saying the same shit every week, but it's ok because they are only adding to the ratings and the show has been picked for season 4 already anyway.

  • Liam will honor Andy's memory.

    This Show will be #1!

  • Together we shall ignite an inferno !!!!

  • I'd rather reside to Gannicus and Crixus !!!

  • It's interesting how the camera angles and lighting is used to really make Liam look like Andy.

  • I wish they could have gotten Sam Worthington to be Spartacus. Too bad he's top big of a star to be in a television series. :(

  • Comment removed

  • God's of the arena has Andy??....No!!....It was awesome??....Yes!! it was fucking great!!1....So what's is the problem. Are you already watch the ne season??...Of course not!!...then Why you are judging the new guy and why are yu saying that the spartacus won´t be the same?? you can see the future or ...??.  Seriously get over it!.

  • OMFG guys quit fucking bitching with the new Spartacus character.

    Andy Whitfield died. we all know that! RIP May he rest in paradise and heaven.

    But hey what are you going to do about it? If it already happened,it happened. im sorry to smack you upside the head just to wake you up. You cant do anything to revive the knew character. Before Andy died he told Liam to be the new Spartacus.

  • andy whitfield did not make the show. I could care less about wether or not he is playing spartacus again. BRING ON THE TITS N ASS and BLOODDRENCHED HACK N SLASH. Oh ya the great tangled web of storys and sub plots as well as brilliant acting from lead to supporting actors/actresses as well.

    GOD THIS SHOW IS THE BEST EVER

  • @204sparky You make a really good point actually. Oddly enough even though the show is Spartacus in season one it was Batiatis, don't know if I spelled that right, who had the most dialogue and therefore the most scenes. I mean think about how many pages of dialogue the fantastic John Hannah, who really shed his The Mummy goofball status in my opinion, had to memorize. There are other characters is all im saying.

  • Naevia has also a new actor. :(

  • @ChristelijkOrthodox What?!!....oh men, that suck's, i really like that women, she is very cute.

  • Ok fine im not gonna hate on the new guy but he can at least get more cuts and definition like how Andy was!!!

  • I'm going to give Liam a chance. You all should. Andy personally gave his blessing on him and the continuation of the show, so he knew Liam was the right choice. RIP Andy

  • This guy has no passion in his voice as Andy did, looking forward to the show but it's gonna be tough to have such a great role dumbed down

  • Spartacus will never be the same.

  • Enough with this bitching about the new Spartacus, give the guy a goddamn chance.... you are all judging this guy before you've seen 1 complete episode. Yes it's sad that Andy died but for god sake move on...

  • Lol at the new Spartacus' voice. Andy could make an arena tremble with his shout, but this guy? Sounds like he belongs in the kitchen.

  • 0:13

    isn't that Varro's wife ?

  • @SDOGG50C yes it is her!!

  • Andy will be missed, he was incredible. Liam seems like a good choice for recasting. I am glad they are continuing the show. It is sad that so many people are already discounting Liam. Give him a shot.

  • Obviously I will watch it, I just hope Liam does the role justice. Andy was truly sensational.

  • me siento mal por la perdida...y aun asi con replazo la seria no sera la mismaaa

    mis condolencias a sus amigo y esposa

  • at first i wasnt sure, but i think they have the right man for the job,

  • I'm not going to go off my first impression and say i dont like the new Spartacus, but no great storyline or series plot or acting will ever make up for the fact that Andy Whitfield is no longer there. RIP Andy, I was genuinely upset when i heard the news.

  • andy was my favourite actor EVER! rip

  • no1 can ever replace the real spartacus.

  • it's hard to assimilate it, but the show must go on, we'll always remember Andy as the beautiful person and terrific actor he was, but he is now resting in peace and the whole staff have to continue their job, they were really nice and supporting to Andy, and because of that they deserve to go on with this successful project, so I wish them the best specially to Liam, he has a really heavy weight on his shoulders.

  • some of you have really backward thinking. saying how the series is ruined because of Liam being the new spartacus, do you really think that's what Andy would have wanted? i'm sure he would want the show to succeed even in his absence, which is true since he personally gave Liam his blessings. not watching the new season because of Liam taking the lead role would be an insult to Andy's wishes and therefore the man himself, may he rest in peace.

  • i always saw crixus as the main character but it still bothers me that andy isnt spartacus

  • @51iohC same!

    sucks andys been replaced but im looking forward to crixus' story continuing

    plus gannicus showing up will be awesome

  • dont hate on the new guy.. of course Andy was the best... but still.

  • I don't understand the 'hating on the new guy thing'...Surely if you are truly a fan of the series you'd give him a chance before slating him...Andy was immense as Spartacus(RIP)...but we want more of the series...so why not give the new guy a chance?

  • @MrSupastar83 well said and can you not see they picked an actor who looks like andy so we can se him as andy and not a "new guy"

  • I can never look at this series the same way again. :(

  • He looks like a boy compared to Andy.. I really wanted to see Andy kill Glaber!

  • to bad andy is not in this series, RIP Andy Whitefield

  • The one and only Spartakus was Andy Whitfield! Not this faggot!

  • @MrMarvinPL86 don't hate on the guy

  • @MrMarvinPL86 we'll probably get used to him, although Spartacus will always have Andy's face in my mind

  • @MrMarvinPL86

    What do you know about the one and only spartacus? You can't even spell his name right... I'm sure Andy would have loved to see your words... >.>

  • R.I.P Andy i wish you could live longer for the next season .... this guy cant compare to you but life is life.. someday, somehow it will end ...

    I wish cancer could be cured :((((

  • makes me want to cry andy is no longer with us...rip Spartacus!

  • whats the release date?

  • @HolyShnizel January 27, 2012

  • kill'em all!!!!

    

  • I don't think so little man

  • A ese nuevo Spartacus le falta mas proteina y mucha mas definición muscular...jajaja

  • I wish Liam good luck I'm sure that if he works hard, he'll be a great Spartacus.

  • =( estrañare muuuchisimo a Andy :'(

  • @THPION oh come one give the man a break and who are you to present such comment?

  • @michelosbelmont *Dude shows up in real life*

    "I am troll".

  • @THPION Yes, he is. Andy Whitfield will always be remember as the best, no questions. He made this role. However, as a fan of the show I am grateful they have chosen to continue it even in the face of a great tragedy. Liam Mcintyre is a solid choice for the role.

  • Comment removed

  • they really look alike

  • new guy spartacus sucks ass

  • @Daski69

    we're sorry the old guy died. dick.

  • @OctaneBOMS so am i...

  • i don't want liam I WANT ANDYYYYY !!!!!!

    imiss you andyy ..

  • Rip Andy, GO Liam!!!

  • "and together we shall ignite an inferno"- CRIXUUUUUUUUSSSSS!

  • Poor Andy, I was hoping he'd make it - but when I saw that new face on the trailer combined with the intro "I'm Spartacus" I figured he was either very sick or passed away.

    RIP Andy.

  • They should held an "Andy look alike" contest and the one who is the nearest to his looks and physique shall act as Spartacus. My brain cant accept the fact Liam is the Spartacus. Andy's acting is sooooooo unique even the best actor they get from hollywood cant replace him. Mayb it would take some time for us to absorb the character played by Liam. Hopefully he study from previous season.

  • My tribute to Andy Whitfield

    /watch?v=t_S8SGf-DX8

  • Will miss you Andy...NOT saying new guy is bad...just saying will miss him.

  • were is Gannicus?

  • @TheSuirad Gannicus is in series 3, his actor (i forget his name) has had a few interviews about it

  • @IHaveInvalidName but why would he be with them if he was freed?

  • @TheSuirad I dont know, he never says.

    But then he loved his brothers in the house of Battiatus, so i could see him getting in deep shit to help out, Onemeous (or however you spell his name) especially.

    Onemeous seemed to stay behind, as shown by the whipping, however by Roman law if one slave turns against his master the ALL must be executed, so it is likely Onemeous is being prepared for execution... which is a fate im sure Gannicus would not hesitate to save him from

    Just a theory of mineXD

  • its only show guys!

  • I think we all need to accept right now that unless they hire Gerard Butler to do voice over, no other mere mortal can compare to the rawness of Andy Whitfield! May he rest in peace.

  • The Real Spartacus is now in Heaven Kicking Angels asses all over their arena

  • @relliKinGrunge God wanted to have Spartacus to kick asses for him

  • @relliKinGrunge dude that would be so cool if they had a arena in heaven for the fighters and gladiators I would so be in there lol

  • @ZIllaPrimeX you get ur ass kiecked tho LOL

  • @relliKinGrunge I don't think so lol

  • @relliKinGrunge don't you mean demons?

  • @iRunEpic no. 

  • Gonna be hard watching this, Andy is what sold the show for me. I found his performance really captured the audience, and I will always have this bad taste when the watching the new season. Not because the new actor is bad, I'm sure he is great, but it's that we know what Andy would bring and no one will ever replace that or even come close. Hope his family is doing well and knows that he will never be forgotten and shall be immortalized by us his ever loving fans. RIP Andy Whitfield

  • his voice not raw enough

  • No Andy? Jupiters Cock!

  • nobody can replace Andy, he is Spartacus. This one is just a person to fill the gap.

  • OMG ANDY IS DEAD!?!??!?!!?

  • @CthulhuIncarnate Yep, he passed away on September :(

  • :( it just wont be the same. RIP Andy

  • The new spartacus looks like a doll for Muppets,

  • I hate the new Spartacus' voice </3

  • This is Spaaaaaaaaaaartacuuuuuus!!!!!!­! Andy rest in peace.

  • i know we should support liam but it feels strange watching him in andy´s place

  • they could of atleast gave him blue eyed contacts to somewhat resemble the old spartacus... This guy looks too much like that weasel character.

  • may andy forever be remembered, he made his mark in the world with this show and this character. bless him and his family. im sure he'll be watching the show as well. cant wait for the 1st episode

  • Don't let our brother Andy die in vain. Let's support what he worked and built hard for.

  • poor andy ;( i cant believe they would replace you with a kin doll dressed up in cloth.

  • RIP he made a great job and i´m grateful because his work was great and the series is a success.

  • RIP Andy beautiful man in his honor i will see the new Spartacus like all the peopel from this TV show

  • It's just not going to be the same without Andy.

  • ANDY! ALLWAYS IN OUR HEARTS!!! [ * ]

  • ALL YOU HATING BITCHES PISSS OFFFF at least they arent just dropping the show like those homo's abc (except lost...lost was good) go STARZ

  • The Gods, they so often talk about in the show, are dicks! I really miss Andy, he was amazing as Spartacus, he was what made this show so amazing (in my opinion). May the Gods what over him wherever he now is...

  • I agree with all of you about Andy. From the moment I saw him I knew I was watching something rare and special. Not only his incredible acting but that unique voice he had. Already I am sick just watching this trailer and seeing someone else in the part. He definately does not command like Andy did and he will be hard pressed to win me and many others over at all. It just sucks.

  • @MrGreggl61 yeah man your right the voice is really different, I thought their look was kinda similar but Liam's voice just doesn't seem to fit. Guess I'll just have to try and get used to it.

  • i hope the main character for spartacus gods of the arena is in this 1 he was awsome

  • RIP Andy, I never did watch Blood and Sand, but I heard great things about his acting!

  • So sad that Andy is gone still, I'll give Lliam a chance though. I will miss Andy war cry though =(.

  • where the real spartacus? i heard he had cancer but was better now?

  • @imenglishurnot No... he die some days ago...

  • @imenglishurnot Got better? He died last week.

  • @W1llHD oh no thats well sad :( he was bad ass rip

  • @imenglishurnot Yeah :( He was Welsh like me!

  • I can't wait for this show! I'm glad Xena's still alive as I knew she would be!!!!! :>)

  • R.I.P andy.

  • I'm sorry, but it will never be the same again.

  • Guys a change is always hard to accept, come to terms with it. We should not condemn Liam though, sure he might not be Andy but he brings his own unique elements to the role. Andy also supported the change in lead roles, so us slandering Liam is not only disrespectful to him but also to Andy and a series that we love so much. To honour Andy and his memory lets keep watching. Keep this amazing show running for as long as possible.

    Rip Andy you will surely be missed

  • @wishIwasAngusStone Nah, it's not about that. We know the circumstances. Still somethings simply cannot be replaced and no one should tell anyone to accept Liam off the bat, He has to earn that respect. I look to this as a new series entirely. can't go from a powerful actor as Andy to Liam. Andy was Spartacus, and based on what's been revealed so far I do not get that same feeling as when I first saw even a glimpse of Andy. He had a rare quality that it's offense within itself to replace.

  • Give him a go, he will grow on you.

  • to bad whitefield had to pass away

    i no i spelled his name wrong

  • I agree with Revan09. Andy was fitting Spartacus character great, but he's no longer with us God bless his soul. Let's support Liam and the series in order for the series to continue. Spartacus fought many legions before his fall even though his body was never found in his last battle. Lets keep watching people. Let the story unraveled.

  • No you're not....

  • JUPITERS COCK

  • RIP Andy Whitfield... You'll always be the ultimate Spartacus... But Liam, i will give you a chance so that the legacy of Spartacus will live on, and Spartacus fans like me won't through rotten food at the producers for not producing the next season.

  • @AnGeLWiNgS93 I agree as well Andy and the cast supported Liam and believed he did a great job. As fans we should be supportive as well not just as Andys fans but as spartacus fans.

  • The show want be the same without Andy Whitfield, you will be missed

  • Sorry but I refuse to watch Spartacus without Andy Whitfield. I'm sure this new guy is great, by Andy was the true Spartacus.

  • RIP Andy :(

  • Liam is bit too skinny and lanky, and he's just not as pretty as Andy. But I'm willing to look past his appearance. What bothers me in this teaser and the other trailers is his voice. Andy had this rich, authentic, soulful voice. It didn't seem like he was acting... he just embodied the part. Liam sounds like any other acting yelling. Forced. It's super unfair to him though, stepping into the shoes of someone who knocked the previous role out of the park. I hope he does well, but I'm doubtful.

  • @heyrey7 Agreed, he's a bit nasally and that what kinda annoys me whereas Andy was the embodiment of the character, utterly perfection. Liam has his work cut out for him for sure. But I will not automatically support him, he has to earn that kind of regard.

  • I watch Doctor Who as well as this, and when David Tennant left, I really thought I'd dislike Matt Smith. But I gave him a chance and he turned out pretty good, and added his own new style to the series.

    I am hoping Liam will do the same in this. He won't be as good as Andy was I don't think, but I believe it will still be a series worth watching.

  • RIP Spartacus :(

  • I wish this new guy the best but he seems a bit too bold in voice and young. It's kind of distressing. I love this show. RIP Andy, I cried.

  • Spartacus Lives.

  • RIP andy u will be missed

  • VARRO RULES!!!!

  • ANDY was the True Spartacus !!!! may he rest in peace

  • I just can't believe that andy had die... that is crazy.... i thought he was doing good... i'm so sorry about it... And i give my condolence to his famely and friends... your'll be miss andy... and nyou will alway be love!!!

  • "The Romans condemned my wife to slavery, took everything from me". If he can act like that, Liam has more support.

  • wow.. Andy was perfect for being Spartacus.... damn..

  • RIP Andy

  • Rest In Peace, Andy!

    It is very sad that Andy has passed away, but as a tribute to his memory we should all support Liam and the rest of the cast of Spartacus.

    Andy we all loved you, and You will never be forgotten! R.I.P.

  • GoGoGO Liam! , do it for Andy

  • RIP Andy Whitfield

  • Come on guys, Andy was very sick (and now dead, RIP) and that's why there's a new Spartacus. Instead of flaming we should support Liam. For the good of the series and for Andy.

  • @Revan09 Right with you bro It was very sad that Andy left us but thanks to Liam the series goes on!

  • @Revan09 So true, as with the Joker in Batman, a whole lot of ppl thought that Nicholson was unbeatable, and Ledger did beat him, just admit and be open minded to the fact talent may come from unexpected people in this world, not just on tv but in real life!

  • @Opupekito who the heck said that heath was better than nicholson? are you crazy? it was two different parts and styles anyway. one had nothing to do with another. it wasn't a trilogy that heath was picking up on. and JACK 's performance was untouchable

  • @dnaseoos Well everyone is entitled to different opinions, plenty of ppl will agree to what u say and plenty to what I said, I think that way because I think one cannot stick to what's in the past and for me saying Nicholson's Joker was better is just a way of negating others the chance to be better sort of when people say there will never be someone better than Jordan for example, he won't be forgotten but sooner or later someone better comes along. So one performance can outmatch another.

  • @dnaseoos I am the type that is inclined to think, that something or someone better will always outmatch a predecessor.Might happen or not with Liam. You on the other hand will think otherwise perhaps, or say Liam
