Julius Caesar is dood en Rome is in verwarring: seizoen 2 van de dramaserie Rome gaat zondag 24 januari 2007 op HBO van start. Wanneer medeproducent BBC seizoen 2 uitzendt is niet bekend, maar de afleveringen zullen ongetwijfeld enkele uren na uitzending in de VS via bittorrent te downloaden zijn. Het tweede seizoen is overigens ook het laatste seizoen.
De trailer voor het tweede seizoen staat op de HBO Rome-site en het HBO-uitzendschema op wikipedia.
