  • The cast and crew did this Haka for their friend and fellow "Spartacus" family member Andy, after filming the prequel "Gods of the Arena" to help give him strength and express their support and love, on his journey. In fact, Andy gave them his thoughts and love and strength which they carry with them now on their own journeys through their lives. Help finish the documentary here: www.beherenowfilm.com -- and our campaign to edit it and share this link with others -- so that we may fulfill Andy's wishes to help and inspire others through his story.

    This is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful, awe inspiring and poignant tributes to a fallen friend I have ever seen. Andy Whitfield IS Spartacus and will forever be. No disrespect to the actor who took on the role after him, Liam McIntyre. RIP Andy, you are sorely missed. = /

      Many have lived great lives, and still never received such an honorable tribute. Andy must have truly been a perfect man to be as deserving as this.

      Goat Liberator When I first saw LEGION, I thought, gaddamm goodbye Brad Pit. Acting wise he was not to be messed with, he was to be reconed with. I have always admired him and these guys have recond the talent he was with a chant of 1worriors. Beautiful tribute.

      Liam faced a nearly impossible task: step into the shoes of a beloved actor tragically taken far before his time, who had already established camraderie and chemistry with the rest of the cast (who were still grieving), and try to not screw it all up. He wasn't Andy, but he did a damn fine job and made the role his own. Respect to both.

    After all this time we still miss you. The champion of Capua, the slayer of Theokoles, the bringer of rain, a true gladiator and brother. Spartucus. His true name is Andy Whitfield. You will forever be written upon our hearts. -December 2023

    The early death of Andy was beyond unfair and tragic. He was as talented as an actor can get. As a human, you could see the love he had for his family and friends. He seemed to be a very genuine person. He got his big break and then lost everything so quickly. It's heart breaking. Rest in peace Andy. I'll always regard you as one of the most talented actors ever.

      ​@GatsuKS Exactly 💯 ✌🏻 I think I've watched Season 1 like 8 times at least! As for Liam I really really tried it, I still try to! And I'm so so sorry for it, but for me he's just not it 🙁 he just doesn't have that sparkle flame 🔥 that Andy had ❤️ the scene in the arena when Spartacus screams "I am SPARTACUSSSSSS!!!!!" There is so much emotion and power in that yell, I just get the chills all over my body every time I watch and hear it!

    To Virgil Viden
    This 'heathen display' is the Hakka the tribal dance of the Maoris. To have this dance performed for you is the greatest honour for a warrior. That is what these people are doing honouring andy as a true warrior. I think it is beautiful and empowering.

    What a wonderful tribute from Andy's cast mates. He was obviously very much loved and it's not hard to see why. Don't normally get upset when a celebrity passes but when i heard about Andy's death it just broke my heart. There was something truly special about this man, his aura, his gentle nature, he radiated goodness, something you can't fake and it shone through. That's how he touched so many people not by being a star but a genuinely decent man. My heart goes out to his family, what a loss..

Keep spreading the link above beherenowfilm com with others, leading up to 4pm Monday, July 23 when the campaign is over. The more we raise the more ability we will have to finish and distribute the documentary as widely as possible, internationally, and fulfill Andy's wishes to help and inspire others by sharing his story.

      It's a beautiful film, truly. I watched for the first time earlier today as I'd just bought a Netflix subscription. The love shared, the fear, the joys and the terribly sad ending moved me beyond words. I love the Haka - I'm a Scots (from Glasgow) Lord of the Rings fan, both books and films! - and at conventions etc i've worked as crew and met lots of my most admired actors, lots from NZ. Most are lovely to fans. Andy Whitfield was a very special and gorgeous man, stunningly compelling, fierce and yet sensitive on-screen, and he is truly mourned by all. Blessings always to his adoring and adored family xx

It truly touched my heart for I also was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer in May 2011. I could feel his fear and the uncertainty in his voice as he struggled with this dreaded desease. But yet he never gave up hope until his body just gave out. What a awesome Spartacus he was, but it the man, father and husband who is missed most.

Funny how that connection is made to him, he is just that type person.. his whole demeanor just draws you in. I too feel a true loss knowing he is gone permanently, as does anyone who takes the time to notice his qualities as a person I'm sure.
