Spartacus House of Ashur Episode 9 Release Date
Spartacus: House of Ashur episode 9 is set to release on Friday, January 30, 2026, on Starz in the United States.
This is the penultimate chapter of the season, so viewers can expect the story to push Ashur’s alliances and betrayals right to the edge as the show builds toward the finale on February 6, 2026.
Many fans are already treating episode 9 as the “calm before the storm” slot, even though Spartacus episodes rarely stay calm for long.
When and Where to Watch Spartacus House of Ashur Episode 9
Episode 9 will premiere at 9:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm PT on the Starz channel and the Starz app in the US. Viewers in other regions generally follow that main US time, with platforms adjusting for local clocks and rights deals.
The official X account @LionsgateTV recently highlighted that Spartacus: House of Ashur is now streaming on Starz, reinforcing that new and returning viewers can catch up on the latest episodes directly on the platform.
In the UK, new House of Ashur episodes are carried via MGM+ rather than directly on Starz, which has already become the routine Friday-night pattern for people following the show there.
Checking local listings or the Starz/MGM+ app on the day of release is still the safest move, especially with the recent minor schedule shuffles around episode 8.
| Region | Platform (current) | Typical time for episode 9* |
|---|---|---|
| US | Starz channel + app | 9:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm PT |
| UK | MGM+ | Early Saturday hours, aligned to US Friday prime time |
Times outside the US are based on the core 9:00 pm ET Starz premiere and may vary slightly by provider, so local guides are important.
Cast of Spartacus House of Ashur
The main cast for Spartacus: House of Ashur episode 9 continues with Nick E. Tarabay leading as Ashur, supported by a strong ensemble around his new ludus and Roman circle. Key faces viewers can expect across the season include:
-
Nick E. Tarabay as Ashur, returning from the original Spartacus series in a new timeline.
-
Graham McTavish as Korris, a former gladiator who earned his freedom and now serves as Ashur’s Doctore.
-
Tenika Davis as Achillia, a determined female gladiator fighting to stand out in the arena.
-
Ivana Baquero as Messia and Jamaica Vaughan as Hilara, house slaves caught in a complicated emotional triangle around Ashur’s household.
Several recurring roles, such as Satyrus, Tarchon, and various Roman elites, keep the world feeling layered rather than focused on only one arena rivalry. This mix of returning franchise energy and newer characters is one reason early critics have described the series as familiar yet fresh.
About Spartacus House of Ashur
Spartacus: House of Ashur is a 10-episode Starz series that acts as an alternate-universe follow-up to the original Spartacus, imagining Ashur’s life if key events had unfolded differently.
Season 1 runs from December 5, 2025 to early February 2026, with weekly Friday releases and a focus on Ashur running his own ludus while navigating Roman politics and old grudges.
The show keeps the familiar Spartacus blend of arena action, shifting loyalties, and bloody consequences, but shifts the emotional center to a character who once lived in the margins of someone else’s story.
Episode 9 sits near the end of this arc, so it is expected to tighten the screws on Ashur’s fragile position politically, personally, and inside the training yard before the finale closes out this planned single-season narrative.
