In Rome, the brothers were brought up by Publius Quinctilius Varus (Gaetano Aronica), a nobleman of considerable power and influence. When Ari (Laurence Rupp) was a child, he and his younger brother Flavus were sent to Rome by their father Segimer (Nicki von Tempelhoff), the chieftain of the Cherusci tribe, to have peace between the empire and his people. They also added an extra layer of authenticity by having them speak Latin. In fact, by casting Italian actors to portray Roman characters, the showrunners Arne Nolting, Jan Martin Scharf, and Andreas Heckmann ensured that these characters would have as much complexity as their Germanic counterparts. Although the story is primarily told from the perspective of the Germania tribes, that doesn’t mean that the Roman point of view has been completely ignored.
