Why was Octavian's actor changed when everyone else's wasn't?
This gay guy looks nothing like the original Octavian.

Years were supposed to have passed when Octavian left Rome. His first actor was too young-looking to show that he'd grown into a man.

They had to rush out the last season to quickly for Max Pirkis to age naturally. Plus he hasn't done anything since, so he must have been planning to retire. So they got a new actor.

He's supposed to be nineteen here, how was OG Octavian unsuitable to play a nineteen-year old? Maybe if the timeskip required that he be a thirty-year old seasoned bathhouse visitor, but nineteen?

He took some getting used to, but I ended up liking him. As an actor he seemed to have a natural air of superiority that seemed fitting for the first Roman Emperor.

It would have been weird to think of the young actor as 30 year old Augustus. Season two takes place over 15 years.

Because the kid stopped acting.

Yes he was 19 right after Caesar's death but after Mark Antony's death he is in his mid thirties.

well many 16 year old refugees in my country look like they are 25, some boys just grow up faster I suppose

This Octavian was a little unnerving at some parts with the way he moved. Something off about it.

I just looked him up after he finished uni he did 2 random films in 2014, and now he produces a bit.
