The actor passed away on September 11th and is known internationally for shaping the breakout role of Spartacus, during the first season of the STARZ Original series Spartacus: Blood and Sand . He was chosen after a worldwide search to find the perfect Hollywood star to play the title role with passion and grace. His fans, friends, and colleagues alike have compared Andy Whitfield's own persona, to that of the noble, brave, honorable gladiator character he played on screen.
