Niece of Caesar and mother of Octavia of the Julii and Octavian. Condescending, manipulative, shrewd, willful, amoral, Atia advances her and her family's status in Roman society by any means, including sex and violence.

Pompey Magnus	Kenneth Cranham	Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus	1.1–1.8
An enemy of Caesar's who was once his ally and husband of his deceased daughter. Pompey is represented as a once highly popular and successful general, who now past his prime falls into uneasy alliance with the conservative patrician element in the Senate.
Servilia of the Junii	Lindsay Duncan	Servilia	1.1–2.5, 2.7

Marcus Junius Brutus	Tobias Menzies	Marcus Junius Brutus the Younger	1.1–2.1, 2.3–2.6
Son of Servilia and filled with inner conflict.

Octavia of the Julii	Kerry Condon	Octavia the Younger	1.1–2.10
The beautiful but weak-willed daughter of Atia, who uses her as a pawn to advance the family in Roman society. As such, Octavia is married to Antony but takes her brother's right-hand man Marcus Agrippa as her lover. Beneath the guise of a dutiful daughter and loving sister, Octavia shows keen intelligence and a simmering resentment.
Porcius Cato	Karl Johnson	Cato the Younger	1.1–1.5, 1.7, 1.9
A fiercely conservative leader of the Senate, Cato is as tough as he is old. He is the only member of the Senate to wear a black toga, which is symbolic of his mourning for what he sees as the death of the Roman Republic under Caesar's rule. More importantly he is an acerbic spokesman of conservatism and traditional interests, and an enemy to Caesar's faction.
Niobe	Indira Varma	Fictional	1.1–2.1, 2.3, 2.9
Niobe is the beautiful and proud wife of Vorenus. A strong character, who is left for eight years to bring up her two children while Vorenus is away on military service, Niobe is seduced by her brother-in-law and bears his illegitimate son. Much of the tension of the first season arises from her need to conceal this from an often inflexible husband who is unable to adjust from military life and not skilled in human relationships.

Son of Atia and grandnephew of Caesar, Octavian is presented as a cold and highly intelligent youth who is a student of power and politics. Octavian is alternately pampered and patronized by his mother; his manhood and masculinity are seen as severely lacking by men and women alike. He is taken prisoner in Gaul while travelling to join Caesar, but saved by Vorenus and Pullo. Octavian is seen as a failure as a military strategist but he uses the accomplishments of his relatives as a means to further his political career and grows into an extremely cunning individual, who is able to defeat Antony and usher in the age of Empire.

Eventually he moves to Egypt, where he rules the Eastern Roman provinces and later commits suicide with his mistress Cleopatra.
Gaius Julius Caesar	Ciarán Hinds	Julius Caesar	1.1–2.1

She is the first daughter of Lucius Vorenus and Niobe. Vorena is the feminine form for names in the Voreni family. She is somewhat impulsive and, like her father Lucius Vorenus, has a bitter, unforgiving nature. In season 2, she grows to hate her father for her mother's suicide and her own temporary enslavement, where she was forced to work as a prostitute in a mine. Her aunt Lyde convinces her to remain with her father for the sake of Vorena the Younger and Lucius, but the Elder eventually betrays Vorenus to his rivals, prompting him to join Antony and flee to Egypt.

Sister of Niobe, widow of Evander Pulchio, and business partner with the Vorenus family in a very profitable joint-venture butcher shop. She grows increasingly resentful of her sister's affair with her husband, eventually telling her that the only reason she is still talking to Niobe is because Vorenus would kill Lucius if he knew the truth. In season 2, she is captured and enslaved along with Niobe's children, but escapes and manages to return to Rome and tell Pullo what happened.

Cassius	Guy Henry	Gaius Cassius Longinus	2.1, 2.3–2.6

The former supervisor at a brothel who kept the customers in line, Gaia negotiates a similar job with better pay with Vorenus, now the leader of the Aventine. She becomes somewhat involved with Mascius, but also shows an opportunistic interest in both Vorenus and Pullo. Gaia makes an enemy of Pullo's wife Eirene, who compels Pullo to beat an insubordinate Gaia in "Death Mask"; he roughs her up, but with her encouragement ends up having rough sex with her as well. Later, Gaia acquires an abortion-inducing herb called silphium, which she administers surreptitiously to Eirene in her tea in "A Necessary Fiction". Eirene miscarries, and then dies (apparently of blood loss). In "Deus Impeditio Esuritori Nullus (No God Can Stop a Hungry Man)", Gaia and Pullo have been in a relationship for a few years; she is mortally wounded saving him from an attack by Memmio, and on her deathbed admits that she killed Eirene.

In "Death Mask", Atia arranges for Jocasta's marriage to Posca; Jocasta is initially reluctant but soon becomes quite happy with him, delighted with his kindness and generosity in "A Necessary Fiction". In "Deus Impeditio Esuritori Nullus (No God Can Stop a Hungry Man)", Jocasta has joined her husband in his relocation with Mark Antony to Egypt, but both escape back to Rome on Atia and Octavia's ship because Posca realizes that war between Antony and Octavian is inevitable, in addition to the fact that life under the caprices of Cleopatra and a frequently drunk and/or stoned Mark Antony is an intolerably dangerous one.

Maecenas first appears in "Testudo et Lepus (The Tortoise and the Hare)"; he is a poet and longtime friend of Gaius Octavian and Marcus Agrippa, and one of Octavian's chief advisers and speechwriters. Maecenas is cheerfully corrupt, at one point conspiring with Posca to steal a portion of Herod's bribe to Mark Antony. He frequently indulges in orgies and narcotics, attends to a cadre of spies, keeps pleasure slaves of both sexes, and shows no hesitance when faced with moral quandaries.
Lepidus	Ronan Vibert	Marcus Aemilius Lepidus	2.5, 2.7–2.8

Vercingetorix	Giovanni Calcagno [it]	Vercingetorix	1.1, 1.10
"King of the Gauls," he appears in "The Stolen Eagle" and "Triumph".
Curial Magistrate	John Boswall	Fictional	1.1–1.2, 1.6, 1.10
An elderly Senate speaker. He is seen in most Senate scenes of the first season. Then he disappears from series without any mentions of his fate. In "These Being the Words of Marcus Tullius Cicero" the Senate has another speaker (who gets killed by Mark Antony in the first scene he appears).
Glabius	Roberto Purvis	Fictional	1.1–1.3
The first husband of Octavia of the Julii, divorced by Atia's force of will, still loved by Octavia, and therefore killed by Timon on Atia's orders. He is seen in "The Stolen Eagle", "How Titus Pullo Brought Down the Republic", "An Owl in a Thornbush", and "Stealing from Saturn". Historically, Octavia the Younger was six years older than her brother Gaius Octavian, and from c.54 to 40BC (the first season's timeframe was 51 to 41 BC) was the wife of Gaius Claudius Marcellus. Therefore, she would have been in his household, not that of the Julii/Octavii, until his death in 40 and her remarriage to Mark Antony. Marcellus has been replaced by the fictional Glabius.
Vorena the Younger	Anna Fausta Primiano (1.2–2.4) Valery Usai (2.5–2.10)	Fictional	1.2, 1.4–1.6, 1.9–2.10
She is the second daughter of Lucius Vorenus and Niobe. During the entire run of the series, she only utters sounds thrice: initially, at the beginning of "Egeria" when she makes a yelping noise whilst playing hide and seek with the family's young Gaulish slave; then twice in "Heroes of the Republic", first she catches Vorena the Elder's attention while riding in the back of a wagon by saying, "Sister!" and later excitedly exclaims "Lyde!" upon seeing her aunt for the first time after her rescue from slavery. At the end of the series, she is credited by Pullo for all but running the Collegium tavern. Pullo says she has the "glare of Medusa". Seen in "How Titus Pullo Brought Down the Republic", "An Owl in a Thornbush", "Stealing from Saturn", "The Ram has Touched the Wall", "Egeria", "Utica", and "Triumph".
Publius Servilius	Simon Callow	Publius Servilius Isauricus	1.6
Caesar's Co-Consul in 48 BC.
Lysandros	Vincenzo Nicoli	Fictional	1.7
A Greek bandit who was killed by Lucius Vorenus. His only appearance is in "Pharsalus".
Ptolemy XIII	Scott Chisholm	Ptolemy XIII of Egypt	1.8
Cleopatra's younger brother, seen in the episode "Caesarion". Historically he was as young as is portrayed, and the character's "chubbiness" is an allusion to a family trait of the Ptolemaic dynasty as historically attested in their artistic representations, nicknames and in the literary record, namely Ptolemy VIII Physcon.
Pothinus	Tony Guilfoyle	Pothinus	1.8
A eunuch who serves as regent to Ptolemy XIII. Seen in the episode "Caesarion".
Charmian	Kathryn Hunter	Charmian	1.8, 2.2, 2.9–2.10

Son of Niobe and Evander Pulchio, a fact that was hidden from Lucius Vorenus until the "Kalends of February". Until then, Vorenus was led to believe the boy was his grandson by his eldest daughter Vorena the Elder. Vorenus accepts the child in later episodes, happily embracing him after he believed his children were dead. In "De Patre Vostro (About Your Father)", Pullo says that Lucius is apprenticed to a stonemason, which Vorenus approves of. Appears in "How Titus Pullo Brought Down the Republic", "An Owl in a Thornbush", "Stealing from Saturn", "The Ram has Touched the Wall", "Egeria", "Utica", and "Kalends of February".
Casca	Peter Gevisser	Servilius Casca	1.12
A Roman senator and one of the assassins of Julius Caesar.
Deborah	Amy Marston	Fictional	2.2–2.4, 2.7–2.8
The Judean wife of Timon and mother of their 3 children.
Caesarion	Nicolò Brecci (2.2) Max Baldry (2.8–2.10)	Ptolemy XV of Egypt/Caesarion	2.2, 2.8–2.10
Seen in the last few minutes of the episode "Caesarion" as a newborn baby, Caesarion is the son of Julius Caesar and Cleopatra. The storyline implies that Caesarion is actually the son of Titus Pullo. The character returns as a young boy (portrayed by Nicolò Brecci) in the episode "Son of Hades", in which Cleopatra asks Mark Antony to publicly declare him Caesar's son (though not his heir). Max Baldry assumes the role in "Deus Impeditio Esuritori Nullus (No God Can Stop a Hungry Man)" (though he appears briefly in the background of a scene in "A Necessary Fiction"), in which Caesarion befriends Lucius Vorenus, who is serving Mark Antony in Egypt. Caesarion asks the soldier about his "father"; he of course means Julius Caesar, but Vorenus' answers seem to hint that he believes Pullo to be the boy's father. In the series finale "De Patre Vostro (About Your Father)", it is made clear that both Pullo and Vorenus believe this to be true, and Cleopatra herself later confirms that Pullo is the father. Vorenus manages to smuggle Caesarion out of the palace as Octavian takes over, knowing Octavian will murder the boy to cement his position as Caesar's sole heir. Pullo brings his son to Rome under the name Aeneas, and tells Octavian that he has murdered young Caesarion. The series ends with the indication that Pullo is about to tell the boy that he is in fact his father.
Omnipor	Rocky Marshall	Fictional	2.6–2.8
Works for Memmio of the Caelians; romances Vorena the Elder, daughter of Vorenus, with questionable intentions. After his treachery is revealed, he is seemingly killed by an axe thrown by Pullo in "A Necessary Fiction".
Herod	René Zagger	Herod the Great	2.7
Prince of Judea and Tetrarch of Galilee. He comes to Rome in "Death Mask" to offer Mark Antony a "gift" of gold in exchange for Rome's assistance in Herod's ascension to the throne of Judea. Levi and Timon planned to assassinate him during the marriage festivities of Mark Antony and Octavia; however, the two brothers have a falling out in which Levi is mortally wounded with his own knife by Timon and the attempt is never made.
Livia Drusilla	Alice Henley	Livia Drusilla	2.8–2.10
Young wife of Octavian; introduced in "A Necessary Fiction". Married to another man Claudius Nero (historically Tiberius Claudius Nero), Livia catches the eye of Octavian; she and her mother Alfidia are pleased when he insists that Livia divorce her current husband to marry him. Octavian introduces her to his family at the same meeting where he berates his friends and relatives for all the vices that are potentially damaging to him; Octavia warns Livia that she is about to marry a monster, but the girl is unfazed. Later Octavian explains that he has rough sexual tastes, but Livia takes this in stride: in "Deus Impeditio Esuritori Nullus (No God Can Stop a Hungry Man)," Livia actively participates in mutually sadomasochistic sex with him. Despite her outward behavior of being slightly dim, she is in private moments as politically astute as Octavian. In "De Patre Vostro (About Your Father)", Octavian's mother Atia of the Julii puts social climber Livia in her place, calling her a "vicious trollop" and asserting her dominance over Livia.
Alfidia	Deborah Moore	Alfidia	2.8, 2.10
The mother of Livia, she is present in "A Necessary Fiction" when a married Livia catches the eye of young Octavian, and both women are pleased when he insists that Livia divorce her current husband to marry him. Later, in "De Patre Vostro (About Your Father)", Alfidia lightly questions Octavia's loyalty to her family at dinner (Octavia defends herself handily), and is present when Atia of the Julii finally puts daughter-in-law Livia in her place.
Antonia	Unknown infant actor	Antonia the Elder/Antonia Minor	2.10
Daughter of Mark Antony and Octavia of the Julii born after Antony left Rome and raised by her mother alone. She could possibly be the daughter of Marcus Agrippa. Octavia complains of her being a disobedient child.
