The iconic television series “Spartacus,” which aired from 2010 to 2013, continues to captivate audiences nearly a decade after its conclusion. As fans reflect on the show that brought the ancient world to life, a look at the cast then and now reveals both the passage of time and the enduring legacy of its stars.

Manu Bennett, who played the formidable Crixus, was 40 years old during the show’s premiere and is now 55. Similarly, Daniel Feuerriegel, who portrayed the titular role of Spartacus, has transitioned from a 28-year-old actor to a mature 43-year-old in 2025. The series also featured notable talents like Peter Mensah, who aged from 50 to 65, and Viva Bianca, who has grown from 26 to 41.

The evolution of the cast reflects broader changes in the industry as well. Liam McIntyre, who took over the role of Spartacus in the later seasons, is now 42, while Lucy Lawless, famous for her role as Lucretia, has aged gracefully from 41 to 56. Their journeys remind us of the show’s impact on their careers.

Tragically, Andy Whitfield, the original Spartacus, passed away in 2011 at the age of 39 due to cancer, leaving a lasting imprint on the series and its fans. Other cast members like John Hannah, Craig Parker, and Katrina Law have also experienced significant life changes, now aged 62, 54, and 39, respectively.
