A Vér és homokban (1. évadban) a trák harcost foglyul ejtik, rabszolga sorba kényszerítik a rómaiak. Gladiátor iskolába kényszerítik, az aréna világába, ahol Spartacus az életéért, felszabadulásáért és a feleségével való újra találkozás reményében harcol. Ez után következett a hat részes Spartacus: Az aréna istenei előzménysorozat ("0. évad"), ami a Batiatus-ház felemelkedésének történetét, vagyis a Spartacus érkezése előtti időszakot idézi fel. A harmadik ("2. évad") évad címe Spartacus: Vengeance (Bosszú), azt meséli el mi történt a gladiátoriskolából kitört felkelőkkel. A sorozatot gyártó Starz 2012 júniusában jelentette be, hogy a negyedik évad ("3. évad") lesz az utolsó a rabszolgából lett szabadságharcos történetéből. A záró szezon címe War of the Damned lett, mely az Elátkozottak háborúja magyar címet kapta, amely a lázadás terjedését, Spartacus új ellenfelét Crassust, és az elkerülhetetlen totális háborút ábrázolja
Since the Edo periods of Japan, gladiator arenas exist in certain areas. In these arenas, wealthy business owners and merchants hire gladiators to fight in unarmed combat where winner takes all.

This seven-hour British-Italian adaptation of Edward Bulwer-Lytton's 1834 epic, set against the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. and previously filmed in 1935, and in 1960 was a vehicle for muscleman Steve Reeves, was trashed by the critics as the campiest of sword and sandal sagas to emerge in years. This despite its reported $19-million price tag, the nobility of its cast that includes Laurence Olivier, Siobhan McKenna and Anthony Quayle, and its rather unspectacular special effects. The central figures are Nicholas Clay as Glaucus, the noble Athenian; Olivia Hussey as the high-born Ione, his love, who is seduced by the Egyptian, Arbaces (Franco Nero), a religious fanatic; Duncan Regehr as Lydon, the champion gladiator; and Linda Purl as the blind slave Nydia, who is torn between Glaucus and Lydon.
