Rome - press pack phase two


Starts Wednesday 2 November at 9.00pm on BBC TWO


 

Introduction


Ciaran Hinds, Kevin McKidd and Lindsay Duncan head a cast of top British acting talent in Rome, the HBO/BBC epic drama series that chronicles the rise of the ancient Roman Empire through the eyes of two foot-soldiers.

 

Ciaran Hinds stars as Gaius Julius Caesar, the battle-weary commander of Rome's conquering army in Gaul; Kevin KcKidd is Lucius Vorenus, one of the two foot-soldiers around whom the drama unfolds.

 

Ray Stevenson is the headstrong legionary Titus Pullo, Vorenus's battlefield cohort; James Purefoy is Mark Antony, one of Caesar's powerful political allies; Lindsay Duncan is Servilia, the lover of Caesar and mother of Brutus, Caesar's nemesis; and Polly Walker is Atia, the powerful, manipulative and sexy niece of Caesar.

 

This second phase of the Rome press pack features interviews with these six actors.

 

Rome is a co-production between HBO and the BBC and will be shown on BBC TWO this autumn.
