News just in; Spidey director Sam Raimi is set to produce a Spartacus TV series for Starz. But forget the 1960’s Kirk Douglas style as the show’s going for a more updated look. Amen to that as, let’s face it, the old one was a bit camp. Raimi is going for the Sin City/ 300 graphic novel look and is set on casting fresh-faced unknowns.
So get to the gym as that dream of landing a sword wielding role just got real. At the helm will be writer- director Steven S. Deknight whose credits include Buffy The Vampire Slayer and the upcoming Dollhouse.
