Fans of Gladiator will want to keep an eye out for Those About to Die, an upcoming Peacock drama series set in ancient Rome.
Partly shot by Independence Day director Roland Emmerich and based on Daniel P. Mannix’s historical book, the trailer has some Game of Thrones, people-backstabbing-each-other-to-become-more-powerful vibes.
The cast includes Anthony Hopkins, Iwan Rheon, Sara Martins, Tom Hughes, Jojo Macari, Moe Hashim, Johannes Haukur Johannesson, Rupert Penry-Jones, Gabriella Pession, Dimitri Leonidas, Emilio Sakraya, David Wurawa, Pepe Barroso, Gonçalo Almeida, Eneko Sagardoy, Romana Maggiora Vergano, Lara Wolf, Angeliqa Devi, Kyshan Wilson, and Alicia Edogamhe.
