Entertainment Weekly has learned that a big-screen sequel to HBO’s “Rome” is moving forward.
“Rome” creator/executive Bruno Heller (“The Mentalist”) has reportedly finished a script for Morning Light Productions, which financed the development and will produce the film.
The magazine adds that series stars Kevin McKidd (Lucius Vorenus) and Ray Stevenson (Titus Pullo) will likely sign onto the movie, which picks up in Germany four years after the series ended.
The next step for Morning Light is to find a director and a studio, since HBO Films won’t be involved.
