The Torch Online - 29 July 2009
In a presentation today at the annual Television Critics Association conference
in Pasadena, the producers and stars of the upcoming series Spartacus: Blood and
Sand emphasized that it pushes the limits of what's been seen on television,
with graphic violence and plenty of sex and nudity, but that it's all in the
service of a well-told story involving compelling characters.
"Nudity?" said co-star Lucy Lawless after being asked if she gets naked in the
the first season. "I'm afraid so. Not entirely, no, and I'm kind of praying that
day never comes."
