Spartacus
Real Fans Q&A With Gwendoline Taylor
Adam McCreadie: Hi Gwen. Are there any scenes you were in that you were worried your mum might see?!
Gwendoline Taylor Not at all! Mum already watched the show, and so did Dad! Mum & I actually watched the finale together – not as awkward as you might think
Kenya Ali Robinson: What was your reaction when you found out that you secured the role of Sibyl?
Gwendoline Taylor Haha! I was shopping for lingerie at the time, for another audition actually (I needed something racy) and got the phone call, then fell backwards into a rack of bras for support. Then I had to untangle myself, buy one, and go straight to my other audition, which I never would have gotten because I knew the dates clashed! Oh well. I got to be on Spartacus, and got a really nice push-up bra. It’s my memento.
Walter Alex Mitchell: Gwendoline Taylor, was it uncomfortable doing hot and steamy scenes in front of the cameras?
Gwendoline Taylor Not really! The entire cast & crew are very professional, so for me it just felt like any other scene you would shoot!
Kelly McLeod Montgomery: Gwen, since you had to take the role of Sybil day by day, what was your reaction when you found out you’d have a love scene with him?
Gwendoline Taylor I knew there was one coming up, it’s inevitable on this show isn’t it?! But I’ll tell you a secret… I was only signed up until episode 9, with an option for 10. They decided to extend my contract. So the love scene in the finale was a complete surprise. I blushed when I found out. I had been preparing to get killed off instead. LOL
Mehdi Djafer: You are so beautiful !! , my question is what series do you watch ? (sorry im french )
Gwendoline Taylor There is some great TV these days! I adored Breaking Bad, I was obsessed with it. Also really into Game of Thrones, The Leftovers, and anything else by HBO!
Kamil El Kadiri: Is there any projects you are working on at the moment ?
Gwendoline Taylor Auditioning, mostly! Although I’ve just come onboard as a brand ambassador for Silent Assembly
Nick Townsend: Has being on Spartacus opened many doors for you with your career?
Gwendoline Taylor Definitely! It opened up America for me… have been over there a few times, and auditioned for heaps of amazing projects! Watch this space

Biography
Nickname Gwen
Height 5′ 7″ (1.7 m)
Originally a post production major, Gwendoline was told by tutors a month into her studies at South Seas Film & Television School that she belonged in front of the camera. She is best known for her breakthrough role as ‘Sibyl’ in ‘Spartacus: War Of The Damned’.
Recently, Gwendoline filmed a starring role in the independent feature ‘Someone To Carry Me’. Other film roles have included ‘Emily’ in ‘Sione’s 2: Unfinished Business’, the sequel to the very popular ‘Sione’s Wedding’. She has also appeared in the New Zealand TV series ‘Nothing Trivial’ and ‘Go Girls’.
Gwendoline is simply the absolute Spartacus beauty queen and one of the most mesmerizing and gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen in my life. Fell for her in her very first scene. As you may have noticed I have a thing for innocent looking girls and Gwendoline is a perfect example of that. The look at her face when Ellen Hollman disrobe her in the front of Gannicus is totally priceless. And her body is so perfect – include that firm breasts and ass. And the sex scene in last episode is fantastic; she’s groaning in so delicious way – her moans are music to my ears. They probably couldn’t have made a better last nude scene for series. Truly can’t wait for extended version of this scene.
