Here's your first look at the pecs-tacular (get it?!) key art for Spartacus: Gods of the Arena, the Starz prequel starring Aussie thesp Dustin Clare as Capua's first champion gladiator Gannicus. The miniseries is set to premiere on Friday, Jan. 21 at 10 p.m./ET.

Meanwhile, the fate of the original Sparty series hangs in the balance as Starz searches for an actor to replace the irreplaceable Andy Whitfield in the title role. Whitfield was forced to bow out of the show's second season to battle a recurrence of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Michael Ausiello will be contributing to Movieline.com and Deadline.com as he preps for the January launch of a new TV-centric website.
