March To Rome


Rome creator/executive Bruno Heller has finished his script for the film sequel to HBO's acclaimed historical epic TV series says EW.

The film which starts off in Germany four years after the show's finale which primarily dealt with the death of Mark Antony and Cleopatra and the rise of Octavian to become Emperor Augustus

The story follows the fate of the show's two leads Lucius Vorenus (Kevin McKidd) and Titus Pullo (Ray Stevenson), despite the former seemingly mortally wounded in the finale.

No specifics on what the plot would focus on as there were no major recorded historical events in the region around 25 BC, though the story could see the two former Roman soldiers hiding out amongst the Germanic tribes.

Heller previously said that his long-term plan for the series had it continued would've dealt with Rome's response to the rise of a messiah in Palestine.
