Roland Emmerich during Those About To Die interview

Summary Roland Emmerich's television directional debut, Those About to Die, will be available to stream on Peacock beginning Thursday, July 18. The series is an epic drama set in ancient Rome and zeroes in on the financial motivation behind some of history's most brutal competitions.

Screen Rant chats with Roland Emmerich about his new Peacock series, the surprising finances of the games, and the creative process behind Those About to Die's opening credits. That ties into the next question I had. Did working on this change how you look at the sports industry as a whole? Roland Emmerich: The whole time of Vespasian and his two sons was a very interesting one. Vespasian built the Colosseum, which is great, because the patricians more or less owned Circus Maximus. So it was this kind of competition thing, which is in the second season, if there's one, as the main subject. It was interesting to delve into and sink your teeth into these characters, who risked their lives.
