The most lavish ancient Roman production since "Gladiator", Sir Anthony Hopkins and Iwan Rheon lead an ensemble cast in "Those About to Die", a 10-part drama set at a time of prosperity during the reign of Emperor Vespasian. Life wasn't quite so sweet for the plebs, but at least they weren't slaves or gladiators.
"Those About to Die" premieres in the U.S. on Thursday, July 18, and in the U.K., Canada and Australia on Friday, July 19 — and viewers abroad can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.
