Set in 79 A.D., POMPEII tells the epic story of Milo (Kit Harrington), a slave turned invincible gladiator who is known as “The Celt." He is forced to participate in an arena battle with a noble fighter, Atticus. Milo crosses paths with Cassia (Emily Browning), the daughter of a wealthy merchant who has been unwillingly betrothed to a corrupt Roman Senator. Milo offers to free Cassia who refuses to put him in danger.
As Mount Vesuvius erupts in a torrent of blazing lava, Milo must fight his way out of the arena in order to save his beloved Cassia as the once magnificent Pompeii crumbles around him.
