‘Spartacus: House of Ashur’ has been cancelled after one season. LionsGate is shopping it to other networks.
“The Spartacus sequel could not match the buzz and viewership levels of the original 2010 series. Additionally, the makeup of the follow-up’s audience did not quite align with Starz’s focus on women and underrepresented audiences, sources said.”
