I'm so sad. I can't believe it's been 10 years already. The best Spartacus ever. Godspeed in Heaven and Godspeed to all those who were near and dear to you Andy,

[@DemonRuby]

It's impossible not to cry while watching this, especially that we know he didn't make it.. You know what makes it even more painful? Just look at him, it's impossible not to notice a beautiful, devoid of malice soul in his eyes, the light, kindness.. I'm sure he was a great human being, we did not need to know him personally to understand that. I get tears in my eyes even if I think about him.

[@seekter-kafa]

he actually dies in the documentary, and of course one can cry, but one can be happy as well, cause he has great family, and his wife and kids are so cool... none the less, the transformation that andy goes thru in this documentary is something else, it's hard thing when u know u gonna die, and yet u wanna live, and the worst thing that noone can tell you why... why oh why? why andy? why you let the beast eat you? something must have bothered you, and now we never gonna know... it's almost like a real life Spartacus end. Bad happy-end!

[@rpsyco]

Usually when I see that an actor died, I say "Oh, that sucks" and get over it in about a day or two, but for some odd reason, Andy's death just killed me on the insides...

[@KevAng039]

Because we watched him get eaten from the inside by cancer and he had the strength to document it on film for us, his poor wife and kids, I can’t even imagine, the kids.

[@deborahaltunel2903]

Me too I just 10 years nearly on discovered spartacus. I went to look up an episode and it said was and I thought what, what do you mean Andy was.....and then found all this out. It hit me like a flipping gMmer blow and I have no idea why. Maybe because he was so young, so hot and fit and healthy as spartacus. But utter shock crept in and I'm still crying now. What a waste. Yet people like Megan no talent Markle the mattress are thriving not surviving lying cheating and conniving their way through life whilst this good soul is no longer with us. It makes me question if there is a god sorry. I felt the same way waking around auschwitz.

[@icecsm16]

I just finished season 1 of Spartacus and this guy was amazing. It's a shame he's no longer with us. I was diagnosed with stage 3 Hodgkin's lymphoma over 3 years ago and underwent 6 months of chemotherapy. It was rough, but I've been in remission for 2 and half years. RIP Andy!

Lmao, comments like these is why you can never really tell if a person is sarcastic or not on the Internet. Because that is either a good sarcastic comment mocking the silly documentary, or completely idiotic sincere one, but given the context I'm grudgingly inclined to believe it's the latter. We're all gonna die one day, you stupid.

[@valaquenta220]

What's killing me is that this guy was just at the beginning of what would have been an incredible career no doubt: He was only 40 years old, with 7 years of acting behind him, and I would have loved to see him performing for the next 3-4 decades honestly. Not to mention that he was an absolutely awesome guy according to most people who worked with him. What a tragic loss that was.

[@skygazer6898]

but the saddest thing of all is that he did not get the chance to see his gorgeous children grow up and they have had to do it without their beloved daddy

[@MrMjhealtheworld]

Only started to watch Spartacus a week ago and truly was in awe of Andy Whitfield's performance. Then my kids told me that he passed away in Real Life and somehow I just was overcome with emotions and cried for this man and his family. I don't know him personally but he truly touched my heart. I wish that the world will get to see the documentary very soon. Actually I am so overwhelmed that I no longer wish to watch the remaining series. That's just me, may be its wrong but this tragedy really hit home hard. I wish you peace Andy whereever you are and I sincerely hope that Mrs. Whitfield and their two children may find solace in knowing that Andy was loved all over the world. RIP Andy Whitfield ♥

[@marandaruiz3249]

+MrMjhealtheworld the rest of the series is still very good but the new actor who replaced Andy just didnt do it for me as spartacus. He was very good but not Andy. Id recommend watching Gods Of The Arena. It has nothing to do with Spartaucs the character. Its about Batiatus and Lucretia 5 years BEFORE Spartacus came to the house of batiatus. Its fantastic truly. But nothing compares to Blood and Sand. But the whole Spartacus series is the best tv series Ive ever seen.

[@MrOlbi87]

+MrMjhealtheworld I know what you're saying mate, I kind of felt the same. However, Liam who takes up the role of Spartacus does an awesome job, just give him a chance and by the last episode you will realise it was all worth it. Not to speak for the dead but I think Andy would've liked people to give Liam a chance at wearing the mantle of Spartacus. PS: The last episode and the very last shot will sum up all those feelings you feel in one great shot.

[@thecelticdancer1]

+MrMjhealtheworld Exact same here. I just watched season 1 for the first time then started to watch the first episode of season 2 and wondered why the story was going backwards. Googled it up and heard that the man had passed away. I have no wish to watch season 2&3. A beautiful light is gone...

Me too it's not the same without him. I'm late watching the series but I couldn't watch after I found out from a friend.

I was a big fan of Spartacus and of Andy as an actor. I was realy sad when I heard the news that Andy was diagnosed with cancer and cried when he passed away. Not until just now I saw this clip and cried again. I have had the same experience as Andy's wife Vashti. My husband was also diagnosed with cancer july 31th 2012. He died on januari 16th 2014. Watching how Andy was undergoing the treatments and the loving care of his wife for him, brought tears to my eyes. I felt stings in my hart. My husband was only 53 and left me with 4 beatifull children. I think of you Vashti. ❤ warm regards Louise

I had no idea that they did this documentary. I wish there would have been more media coverage on this. It makes me so sad that he lost his life to this awful cancer. I feel terrible for his family, his children and wife. He was an amazing performer/actor and I was taken in by the Spartacus series from the very first season, but it just wasn't quite the same without him. That isn't to diminish the fine acting by all the other actors, it is just that he really did a tremendous job making you believe in what you were watching. Anyway I am going to search for the documentary and see if I can't pay for it in hopes that the proceeds go toward cancer research.

Chemo & Radiation strips our bodies of everything how some manage to go in remission and go on I am mystified . I was with her 7 yrs at every Dr appt., every test every single shower , meal , pain !! I admire Andy for his bravery to do this document. I personally opt not to if I ever get Cancer to have the chemo / radiation. People you hear of Cancer , you know those that die from it . When you live with it 7 days a week 365 days for 7 yrs it opens your eyes , your mind and your heart . She left like a butterfly ..entered her hospital room 4 mins ahead of me while I signed in at the desk . Wheeled herself to her room . I walked in set her food down on her tray , started telling her about my day . Our plans for her coming home in 3 days . She did not respond , I yelled for help , they took her away . It happen so fast ! I followed the ambulance at the ER they handed me a glass of water and kleenex. I knew then there was no coming home . She was 3 yrs younger than me . We grew up together . People said she was my shadow she adored me. Yet 9 yrs later I know how much I miss her and how I adored my sister

[@TheLimedew]

Andy will always be Spartacus to me.

[@bez_b]

This video make me cry even after all this years. And when I saw the film my heart was broken.

[@sonus-uk2133]

RIP Andy Whitfield, I've just watched Spartacus season 1 and I'm watching season 2. I've just known you but now you gone away. I wanna see more and more movies with you're in but it can't :'( I must admit that no actors can play Spartacus as good as by you! Feeling so sad! :'(

[@nocturnalrecluse1216]

Who the hell would dislike this????

[@DriannaReese]

2021 and I am still saddened with what happened to Andy Whitfield. My one and only Spartacus🥺

[@MarkoVeselic]

We miss you buddy

[@xitup1]

Just watched it on Netflix, haven't cried this much in a while. Thank you for sharing this beautiful story of how bravely he fought til the very end. As a new father, I understand needing to do whatever it takes to be there for your kids and family. Andy will forever be missed and there will never be a truer champion.

[@loehansanjaya628]

You will always be the champion of capua. Thanks Andy.

[@whiteemerald_6802]

I'm watching Spartacus blood and sand again. I am not done with the first season, again, but i am reminded of Andy's death. It saddens me. He was such a great actor and i didn't knew of this project. Was the kick starter successful?

[@WhateverProduction4]

I don't think I've ever watched a trailed that made me cry so much. The strange thing about humans, is the fact that I've never met this man, never knew him personally. Only ever saw him ONCE on the Spartacus show. But his aura he gives off as a person, is amazing to say the least. He seemed like just a genuinely all around decent person. We need more people with his personality and mindset in this world. This is such a tragic loss of an amazing soul, an amazing actor and an amazing person. I've learned so much about Andy since watching the first season of Spartacus and learning of his death. RIP Spartacus!

[@turgutcanpehlevan4707]

I have just finished watching Spartacus this month, April 2019. Andy, you are a true hero and an inspiration and you will always be missed. Love you.

Spartacus was never the same after Andy Whitfield died

[@JCSolo]

I obviously didn't know him. I just first seen him act in Spartacus. I am also now just finding out about his passing. I do not get sad by actors personal journey. I do however feel for their loss but I don't invest much thought when I have never watched aby show they acted in. Furthermore, the news of his passing hit me deeply. To watch a man (or woman) be stripped down to skin and bones, is far beyond hurtful. His tears made my heart cry. I pray his death was not in vein & God has some meaning behind the sins of man. Our technology and intelligence is so advanced, it would be a mortal sin if cures were kept a secret. God Bless you Andy.

Oh my God!, that looks, that smile are killing me 😭😭😭

A great warrior, both on screen and off.

Вечная память СПАРТАК!!! Покойся с миром. Ты в наших сердцах. Переведите кто может этот ролик и все ролики с его участием.

[@l.o.a.l178]

So I've seen a glimpse of Spartacus from a friend about 4 years ago and I was greeted with so much gore; some guy sliced of another guy's forehead and his brains fell out. I've been avoiding it since. However, just recently, another friend practically forced me to watch it and I decided to humor him. Needless to say, I cried along with Spartacus when Sura and Varro died, felt his pain in every one of his battles in the arena and shared his victories with equal feeling. My special one was when he slayed (of course with aid from Crixus) Theokoles and the heavens wept at such marvelous display. My point is, you grow attached to the actor behind the character without knowing it. I'm on S3 now and I realized that they had changed Spartacus (nothing against Liam McIntyre, of course. I just realized it wasn't Andy Whitfield 💔). I had to know why and now here I am. In tears. This is a fresh wound for me, although inflicted quite a long time ago to those closest to him (I pray memories of him only bring joy). I regret not knowing him sooner. May he continue resting in peace.

[@javiervassell6585]

best Spartacus actor

[@AndreXMichael]

Liam McIntyre had huge shoes to fill and I'm glad the series went on in sure Andy would have wanted it to keep going

[@MeThePersonvWeThePrivileged]

Thanks to the people playing the characters Gannicus, Crixus, Spartacus and Agron in the Insanneseum, another type of cancer. You are an inspiration. Keep working it!

[@neox77691]

RIP Andy maybe one day we will kick cancers Ass.

[@ChipZilla69]

Әр адамның өз орны бар. Марапатқа ие Энди. Біз ұмытпаймыз керемет актёрді.

[@chugalongway01]

Spartacus couldn't hold a candle to the real life Andy Whitfield

[@adelzolotova8331]

I can't look at Andy calmly, knowing that he is no more. Tears, pain, loss and eternal memory of him in our hearts ... ❤️ So deeply this valiant man and great actor touched all my feelings. As if I know him personally and for many years. There are no words to express all my ADMIRATION to Andy for the worthy role of Spartacus 👏👏👏The best Spartacus in the best historical series in the world ⚔️🔥

[@adammanx23]

This is the saddest thing ever

[@irisw7604]
