Jojo Macari plays Domitian and Tom Hughes plays Titus in Roland Emmerich's new historical series, Those About to Die. Macari and Hughes spoke with MovieWeb's Greg Archer about the gladiatorial show set in ancient Rome, which also stars Anthony Hopkins. All episodes of Those About to Die are available to stream on Peacock.
“Those About to Die” is an epic drama set in the corrupt world of spectacle-based gladiatorial competition, exploring a side of ancient Rome that has never been told before – the dirty business of entertaining the masses, giving the mob what they want more than anything else… blood and sport. The series introduces a cast of characters from across the Roman Empire who collide at the explosive intersection of sports, politics and dynasties.
