Will there be a HBO Rome Season 3?
Unfortunately the answer to that question at the moment is no. I am receiving quite a lot of search engine hits for this particular question and the HBO Rome keyword, so I thought I answer this question in a single post. There has been no word to give hope that there will be a HBO Rome season 3 despite the many disappointed fans.
It was announced by Chris Albrecht in July 2006 news conference that season 2 would be the last, Originally the film was developed for two years contract with the BBC but found some difficulties to continue due to a few problematic facts of which for being extremely expensive with very low viewer rating. Here is a useful quote on the subject from the co-creator Heller:
“I discovered halfway through writing the second season the show was going to end. The second was going to end with the death of Brutus. Third and fourth season would be set in Egypt. Fifth was going to be the rise of the messiah in Palestine. But because we got the heads-up that the second season would be it, I telescoped the third and fourth season into the second one, which accounts for the blazing speed we go through history near the end. There’s certainly more than enough history to go around.”
The cancellation of HBO Rome was really sad for the fans (counting myself as well) especially at the very exciting point!

Let’s make a fun club for rome season 3.I sure of that we’ll be over million.Maybe bbc or hbo can realize what they miss.I also liked spartacus,the real history is exciting except too much blood and sex but nothing can replace THE ROME.
Let’s come together and open TheRome.com for new seasons.

Is there any hope for another season of “Rome”? I really enjoyed the series and have been hoping the powers that be will reconsider. I think it was an excellent series and there could yet be several outcomes for additional series. I cancelled HBO when HBO cancelled “Rome”. Only way to get me back is to being back “Rome” And bring back Ray Stevenson as Pullo.

Amazing!!! It is a shame call Rome a show or even a serie, more even when compare with general tv shows. It is a long very good movie release in chapters ;P
Hope HBO finds a way to make same money with less audience than “no brain mass audience” shows. It seems HBO is trying, I was impressed with 1 season of Games of Thrones but it reached more viewers so … Let’s hope in the long run quality will not be outweighed by quantity
