Starz’s sword-and-sandal series “Spartacus” holds a special place in our loins. The hyper-stylized gladiator epic—created by showrunner Steven S. DeKnight, produced by Sam Raimi, and directed by Rick Jacobson—blessed us with savage fights, buckets of blood, quotable profanity, and copious amounts of nudity and sex.
The show featured Lucy Lawless in her first topless scenes ever and nudity from some of the most beautiful women on TV, including seasoned stunners and fresh faces we would never see again. The sex was wild and kinky, often tragic and disturbing, but always worth a rewind. Now, the series is back like hemorrhoid on ass, making us itch for more!
In honor of its triumphant return, we present Clatto’s 10 Hottest Nude “Spartacus” Babes! Disagree? Enter your babe into the arena by commenting below.
10. LESLEY-ANN BRANDT
Lesley-Ann Brandt, the sexy South African model-turned-actress, played oft nude house slave Naevia on “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” and its prequel series “Spartacus: Gods of the Arena.” When she wasn’t serving Lucretia’s whims or bathing her, she was getting railed by gladiator Crixus, the Champion of Capua.
Brandt did not return for the second season of “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” due to scheduling issues that arose when original lead Andy Whitfield exited the series due to his tragic Stage 1 non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which put the show’s future on pause until Liam McIntyre stepped into Whitfield’s enormous sandals.
Brandt went on to star in the series “Lucifer,” which ran on Fox and Netflix for a total of six seasons, the Syfy movie Zombie Apocalypse, and the black horror anthology film Horror Noir. Sadly, her boobs retired after their memorable run on “Spartacus.”
09. JAIME MURRAY
Jaime Murray played Roman socialite Gaia in the “Spartacus” prequel series “Gods of the Arena.” As Lucretia’s friend and lesbian lover, she goes full frontal while pouring wine down her body in a threesome with Lucretia (Lucy Lawless) and her husband, future lanista Quintus Lentulus Batiatus.
Murray was hot off her nude role as arsonist/murderer Lila West on season two of “Dexter” when she scored “Gods of the Arena.” She was also starring as “the real” H.G. Wells on Syfy’s “Warehouse 13” at the same time. Other notable creds include the Sarah Michelle Gellar CW series “The Ringer,” ABC’s “Once Upon a Time,” The CW’s “Vampire Diaries” spinoff “The Originals,” and Fox’s “Gotham,” as Nyssa al Ghul.
Peep:
08. JAMAICA VAUGHAN
Aussie starlet Jamaica Vaughan plays Hilara, Ashur’s body slave and the dedicated vilica of his household, in Starz’ new “Spartacus” revival series “House of Ashur.” Fans were excited for the show’s return but worried if it would succumb to guidelines of our wet blanket society. Sure, it wrapped its story around a black woman gladiator champ, but the gratuitous nudity remained untouched—like a precious artifact from a time long gone.
Episode One, “Dominus,” opens with Vaughan and Ivana Baquero (Pan’s Labyrinth) in bed, naked, with Ashur (Nick E. Tarabay). Vaughan flaunts her lovely rack and big scrumptious cake throughout the season, including hot flings with Baquero, a rough bent-over submission to Julius Caesar, and a wild romp with Ashur in the impluvium.
Peep:
07. JESSICA GRACE SMITH
Jessica Grace Smith played sweet, tragic slave girl Diona on “Spartacus: Gods of the Arena.” When she wasn’t serving Lucretia, she was offered sexually to her guests like a drink of water, leading to one of the series most scandalous scenes: a simultaneous deflowering of ass and vajayjay via double penetration.
The pretty Kiwi went on to star in the New Zealand comedy series “Westside” and the Australian soap “Home and Away.” She also co-starred with “Spartacus” alumna Laura Surrich in the indie horror-comedy Diagnosis: Death.
Peep:
06. ERIN CUMMINGS
Erin Cummings is the “Spartacus” babe that started it all. The pretty brunette played Sura, Sparty’s wife, who is enslaved after he defies Rome and is forced into the gladiator arena. Her hotness drives him to fight for freedom and the hope of seeing her again. When he discovers she was murdered, he leads a revolution to rip the Romans a new asshole.
Fright fans first got a look at Cummings in the 2009 Jeffrey Combs (Re-animator) thriller Dark House. That same year, she appeared in “Spartacus” franchise director and producer Rick Jacobson’s ode to boobs, blood, and bullets, Bitch Slap.
Peep:
05. VIVA BIANCA
Viva Bianca is old school “Spartacus” snatch, playing murderess Roman socialite Iliythia. The Aussie stunner made her full-frontal nude debut in Episode Two of “Spartacus: Blood and Sand.” Her nudity was featured throughout the season in spectacular fashion, making her one of the show’s most iconic characters.
Bianca starred in the original four seasons of the show. Afterwards, she played a burnt-out prostitute out to do one last big trick (more nudity!!!) in IFC Midnight’s X and as AnnaLynne McCord’s boyfriend-stealing BFF in the revenge thriller Scorned. She also reunited with her nude X co-star Hanna Mangan-Lawrence in 2014’s The Reckoning.
Peep:
04. IVANA BAQUERO
Where does the time go? In the blink of a palm’s eye, Pan’s Labyrinth star Ivana Baquero has grown into a beautiful thirty-something stunner, appearing nude as slave girl Messia in Starz’ new “Spartacus” spinoff “House of Ashur.”
Baquero, along with co-star Jamaica Vaughan, delivers the show’s first bit of nudity in its premiere episode, “Dominus.” The Spanish beauty goes full-frontal as she’s startled awake by Ashur, who leaps out of bed, frightened after being given renewed life by Lucretia in the Underworld. In addition to Ashur and Hilara (Vaughan), Baquero smacks clams with Julius Caesar’s wife Cornelia (Jaime Slater).
Baquero made her acting debut as a child in the Spanish werewolf thriller Romasanta, co-starring with the late Julian Sands (Warlock). Her breakthrough role came in 2006 at the age of 11 in Guillermo del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth. Her latest genre role was in the 2021 horror-comedy Black Friday, featuring Bruce Campbell. She was also featured in Clatto’s esteemed list for Best Nude Acting in Horror 2025.
03. KATRINA LAW
Stunner Katrina Law played Mira, a house slave in the House of Batiatus, in “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” and “Spartacus: Vengeance.” She shows off the goods frequently while serving around the house, bathing with other slaves and masters, and in slave quarters. Later, after Spartacus’ cock has finished mourning Sura, she knocks sandals with the rebel leader.
After her “Spartacus” run, Law went on to star as Nyssa al Ghul on The CW’s long-running superhero show “Arrow.” She currently plays a lead role on the CBS show “NCIS.” On the big screen, she most recently starred in director Steven C. Miller’s Werewolves, alongside Frank Grillo (The Purge: Anarchy) and Lou Diamond Phillips (First Power).
Peep:
02. LUCY LAWLESS
Lucy Lawless, of “Xena: Warrior Princess” fame, had never performed nude scenes until starring as Lucretia on “Spartacus,” making her topless debut in “Sacramentum Gladiatorum,” the second episode of “Blood and Sand.”
Lawless, in her early 40s, performed eight nude scenes between “Blood and Sand” and “Gods of the Arena,” including a fully nude lesbian romp with Jaime Murray, heavy boob-groping sex scenes with John Hannah, and a nude bathhouse scene (peep them huge areolas!) with slave girls, including fellow Kiwi, Laura Surrich.
She told AfterElton:
I have to be naked on screen. I’m terrified. I hate it. But if it’s right to fulfill a scene… you gotta go there, because I’m an artist.
And, that’s why she’s an icon.
Peep:
01. LAURA SURRICH
Pretty New Zealand native Laura Surrich played the uncredited role of nude slave girl in the sixth episode (“Delicate Things”) of “Spartacus: Blood and Sand.” Making her appearance in a bathhouse scene among other hot slave girls, she’s taken in doggy by lanista Lentulus Batiatus at the urging of his wife Lucretia (Lucy Lawless).
The role had no lines, but the then 22-year-old stunner with an “almost E” bust didn’t need them. Much like Tom Hanks in Cast Away, she held the screen without ever speaking a word of dialogue, relying instead on the universal language of naked boobies to capture her character’s aura.
Poised to be the Sydney Sweeney of our time, she suddenly vanished after taking a speaking role that same year in the horror-comedy Diagnosis Death. We can only hope she’s living her best life and thank her for giving us the best “Spartacus” nude scene. We can also enjoy the only interview she ever gave in her short but memorable career—an exclusive gift to Clatto fans. Read it here.
