In less than two months, Starz will premiere the final season of Spartacus, and it looks like the premium cable network is ready to start the promotional push that'll lead us to January 25. The other day, we shared a new poster for Spartacus: War of the Damned, and tonight another new poster for the series has made its way online.

If Crixus and Gannicus had a competition to see which of them could look the most ferocious in a photo, I'm not sure who would win based on what they've given us in this poster. Both look pretty severe in the image below, which includes the same determined looking Spartacus (Liam McIntyre) we saw in the other new poster, only this one, which was posted tonight on the Spartacus Facebook page, gives us a good look at Naevia (Cynthia Addai-Robinson), Crixus (Manu Bennett), Gannicus (Dustin Clare) and Agron (Dan Feuerrigel).

Not shown (besides Ellen Hollman, who plays one of the rebels Saxa) are Spartacus' new opposition Marcus Crassus (Simon Merrells) and Julius Caesar (Todd Lasance). I suppose in the above scene, they'd be on the receiving end of those roars and glares, so it's fitting that they're out of frame.

In case you haven't seen it, here's the official description for Spartacus: War of the Damned:

The season opens and Gaius Claudius Glaber is dead. Many months have passed since his defeat, and the rebel army, led by Spartacus and his generals Crixus, Gannicus and Agron continue to amass victories over Rome. With the rebel numbers swelling to thousands of freed slaves, and Spartacus more determined than ever to bring down the entire Roman Republic, the horde become a force that challenges even the mighty armies of Rome. Together, the rebels engage in one bloody skirmish after another and prepare for the inevitable: a full out war.

Spartacus: War of the Damned premieres January 25 on Starz.
