Sixteen years ago I got to play a role that would change my life. Crixus was the type of character any actor would dream to play, including myself, at the time a hungry out-of-work actor. The three year journey of production was exceptional in every way. It required a focus & determination I’d aimed to achieve my entire life & the years of effort & gym training & doing acting classes with @sandraleepaterson on a weekly basis, finally paid off. Personally, I had experienced some heavy losses in my life, such as the death of my beautiful mother & my older brother in two separate car accidents. These moments broke pieces within me that could never be rearranged like some convenient jigsaw puzzle, but as an artist, they provided the knowledge of pain that needed to be layered into Crixus & his flame that erupted inside the arena. I had a lot of enjoyment with cast & crew but, deep down, I was extremely focussed. I didn't touch a drop of alcohol over the entire period of Spartacus, even my 40th birthday, & believe that was key to my delivery of the performance. I gifted myself with sobriety & focus & the role of Crixus gifted me in return. At 56, I realise I may never get the opportunity to again be as physically involved in a character & when I look upon this image & extraordinary opportunity to appear on the cover of America’s @muscleandfitness, I am quite proud of this younger, very disciplined version of me & the commitment made to honor the memory of a man that lived in the tumultuous century before Christ & died in 72bc, fighting for freedom. His name was Crixus.

🇬🇷✨ Όταν ο Manu Bennett έρχεται στην Ελλάδα και επιλέγει να τραγουδήσουμε μαζί ένα από τα πιο αγαπημένα ελληνικά τραγούδια, «Τα Σάββατα» του @aremovic … τότε η στιγμή γίνεται πραγματικά ξεχωριστή. 🎶❤️
Από την άλλη άκρη του κόσμου, στην Ελλάδα, και τελικά σε ένα τραγούδι που μας ένωσε μέσα σε λίγα λεπτά. Μια απρόσμενη, όμορφη συνεργασία που θα θυμάμαι για πολύ καιρό. 🇬🇷🎤
Thank you, Manu, for choosing to share this beautiful moment with us and for bringing your energy and love for Greek music into this song. Some moments are simply meant to be lived, shared and remembered. ❤️
When Manu Bennett came to Greece and chose to sing one of Antonis Remos’ most beloved songs, “Ta Savvata,” together with us… it turned into a truly special moment. 🎶✨
From the other side of the world to Greece, and then into a song that brought us together. An unexpected and beautiful collaboration that I’ll remember for a long time. 🇬🇷❤️

Just saw this fan art & thought wow somebody took the time to think of me (& Liam) & make this powerful image. Thank you whoever you may be. In terms of the discussion of owning your image in the face of Ai, well I don't believe the expression of art “belongs” to anyone & if my image is used by somebody other than an accomplished artist, director, producer or whomever, I have nothing but gratitude. To exist, is a miracle. To work as an artist, is a privilege. To be remembered, is an honor.
