Just pick from among the hot bare-chested dudes populating the 6-part original television event known as Spartacus: Gods of the Arena that is premiering tomorrow night on Starz. The obvious choice is the nappy-wearing, dirt-speckled, Clive-Owen-with-long-locks specimen who stands second from the right.

Spartacus: Gods of the Arena, the prequel to Spartacus: Blood and Sand, brings not only the hot but the epic brutality of the Roman Empire. Thanks to stars John Hannah (Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Mummy), Lucy Lawless (Xena: Warrior Princess), Dustin Clare (The Eye of the Storm, Satisfaction), Peter Mensah (300), and Jamie Murray (Botched, The Deaths of Ian Stone), tomorrow night, your television will be aglow with man-pecs and lady-cleavage galore.

Set years prior to the events of Spartacus: Blood and Sand, a young Batiatus (Hannah) is poised to overthrow his father and take control, and he'll freely betray anyone to ensure his gladiators are in the highest demand. With his loyal and calculating wife Lucretia (Lawless) by his side for every underhanded scheme, and drawing on the brazen talents of her seductive friend Gaia (Murray) when it counts, he will stop at nothing to deceive the masses, seize power, and bleed Capua dry.

Let the games begin—in the bedroom and in the arena. Spartacus: Gods of the Arena—premiering tomorrow, January 21, at 10pm ET/PT only on Starz—features not only a plethora of beefcake-y men, but a bevy of luscious women. Check them out below, and click here for all things gladiatorial to tide you over until tomorrow night!
