Note: Page may contain SPOILERS
Name: Varro
Origin: Roman
Played By: Jai Courtney
Who is He: Varro is a Roman who volunteerily joined the Batiatus’s ludus in order to pay off his debts. He has both wife and child, and is awaiting the day he can return to them after his debts are gone. Varro and Spartacus become very good friends with one another, and he remains the only friend of Spartacus for majority of season 1. Unfortunately, he has a bit of a gambling problem.
Later on in the series, Varro gets the opportunity to see both his child and his wife. He finds out that she is pregnant with someone else’s child and gets very upset. She states that the person forced himself onto her and that she didn’t want to cheat. While still mad, he ends up gambling a lot of his earnings away and even pays money for a prostitute. Spartacus fortunately talks him out of the path he’s chosen and eventually Varro forgives his wife and writes her a letter. After no response, Spartacus and Varro discover that nobody is at Varro’s household and that there was blood found on the floor. Varro begins to freak out, but fortunately finds out that she is safe at a family member’s house and that the blood was from the person who impregnated her.
All is well up until an exhibition fight between Spartacus and Varro where Numerius, son of Calavius, tells Spartacus to kill Varro. He did so because of Ilithyia, who wanted Spartacus to be hurt. She had seduced Numerius into doing so. Unfortunately, Batiatus approves to try to get on the good side of Calavius, which proves to be a futile effort. Varro dies.
Actor Information: Jai Courtney is easily one of the most favored actors in season 1 of Spartacus: Blood and Sand. He was born in Australia. Unfortunately, not much is known about him. He was on “Packed to the Rafters” and “All Saints”.
