Watch Those About to Die online
If you like the idea of blood-stained colosseums, battles to the death, chariot races, and Sir Anthony Hopkins wearing a toga, then Those About to Die might just be about to become your new streaming obsession. With the show going out on Peacock in the US and Amazon Prime Video around the world, you can watch Those About to Die from anywhere with a VPN.
Adapting 1958's controversial semi-fiction book written by Daniel P. Mannix of the same name, Those About to Die transports us to the epicenter of the Roman empire. Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow) is at the helm, so you can be sure that this series will deliver on sensation and epic scale.
With the trailer (which you can watch at the bottom of this page) described by TechRadar's Senior Entertainment Reporter Tom Power as "the kind of show you'd get if Gladiator and Game of Thrones had a baby," you can expect plenty of swinging swords, devious betrayals and portentous speeches made by classically trained British thesps.
To quote Peacock's blurb for the ten-part series: "Those About to Die is an epic drama set in the corrupt world of the spectacle-driven gladiatorial competition, exploring a side of ancient Rome never before told – the dirty business of entertaining the masses, giving the mob what they want most… blood and sport."
So jump into your time machine and prepare to head back to ancient Rome with our guide to watch Those About to Die streams online no matter where you are in the world.
