Spartacus: House of Ashur Season 1 came to an end on Friday, February 6, on Starz. After months of waiting on any update about the show’s future, Starz announced on May 22 that House of Ashur has been canceled. Season 2 had already been written, according to the show’s creator, Steven S. DeKnight. But there is some hope that the series could be saved, thanks to Starz’s split with Lionsgate.

Spartacus: House of Ashur is led by Nick E. Tarabay, reprising his role as the traitorous Ashur from Spartacus, and costars Outlander‘s Graham McTavish, Tenkia Davis, and more. Julius Caesar (Jackson Gallagher) and his powerful wife, Cornelia (Jaime Slater), have been important figures in this season, and there’s tension rising after Ashur was roped into the murder of Gibinius (Andrew McFarlane) in the penultimate episode.
