"There has been some talk about a possible spinoff with Crassus and Caesar. Is anything happening with that? Is that a possibility currently?
DeKnight: I dont think its outside the realm of possibility. Im currently eyeball deep in this other sci-fi extravaganza [Incursion], so Im not directly involved with it -- although, Ive given my huge, enthusiastic blessing. I would love to see this world continue, and its been such a joy to be able to create such a unique show and a unique world. I think it would be a shame not to see more of it.
If it did happen -- and I know this is all speculative -- do you think it would be best to stay away from seeing Agron and Nasir and the surviving rebels again, just because we leave with them on a hopeful note?
DeKnight: Oh, absolutely. Definitely. I think if it goes on, Ive always felt it would be great to follow the Caesar/Crassus/Pompey storyline. Or, if not that, I always have this little dream in the back of my head of those missing Gannicus years -- Gannicus, the wandering adventurer. Very much a Kane and Kung Fu kind of deal would be awesome.
It seems like you could do a miniseries about that sort of thing.
DeKnight: From your lips to Starz ears!"
I hope that that the Gannicus show comes to fruition though im doubtful. But i think after i watch this entire series again this summer i will find myself at peace with it ending and want them to just leave it alone. This was the perfect series from beginning to end. And though it was a task to make it through that first episode im so glad that i stuck with it cuz it didnt take long to hit its stride. So much has happened in this show that watching it from the beginning again will be like my first time all over again. Because so much shyt goes on while you are watching it that you forget what happened in older episodes.
