In March 2010, Whitfield was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and began undergoing treatment immediately in New Zealand.[10] This delayed production of season two of Spartacus: Vengeance.[10] While waiting for Whitfield's treatment and expected recovery, the network produced a six-part prequel, Spartacus: Gods of the Arena, with only a brief uncredited voiceover from the actor. Although declared cancer-free only two months later, he suffered a recurrence of the disease later in the year and was ultimately compelled to abandon the role.[11][12][13] Starz recast Australian actor Liam McIntyre as Whitfield's successor.[14]
Whitfield died of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in Sydney, Australia, on 11 September 2011, at the age of 39, 18 months after his initial cancer diagnosis.[1][15]
