XiaoShen Posted June 10, 2010 Author Posted June 10, 2010 i love him he is so hot in Spartacus I heard that he has cancer hope that it is not true Sadly it is. Filming has been postponed for season 2. Hopefully he will get better and have a speedy recovery. Quote
yours_forever Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 So sad he is married because I am truly in love with this man. Shame I'm married too. Haha ^Yes. Sadly, he has cancer and they had put the second season on hold and filmed Gods of the Arena to help buy him some time. He went into remission so they were going to resume shooting but then the cancer came back so Starz had 2 choices: to cancel the show or replace him. They are replacing him so the show can continue. It won't be the same without him though My heart goes out to him and his family though. I hope he can fight this and we get to see him acting again soon. Here's a couple more recent pictures... Quote
