And this slave falls in love with Kasia, a beautiful woman from the upper class, the daughter of a rich merchant, which in principle already sounds like a sin for the society of that time. In addition, the girl is already engaged to a Roman senator, which adds drama to her relationship with the slave. Suddenly, the city finds itself in danger of disappearing when a nearby volcano wakes up. Trying to prevent the death of his beloved, the slave Milo rushes ahead of time and death to save her.

First of all, according to his desire, he brought his body to perfection in terms of external and physical parameters. For this, he went through a special training program and followed a diet to achieve relief. In order to avoid big mistakes and understand the historical facts, the creators of the film spent about six years studying the materials that tell what happened in the city near Vesuvius, in between working on other films. In addition, work was carried out on the relevance of that historical period. Filmed in Toronto, Ontario. For Paul US Anderson, "Pompeii" became the fourth film shot on 3D cameras. In addition to complex scenes, where computer graphics cannot be dispensed with, Anderson tried to display most of the scenes not with the help of a green screen, but using scenery. In addition, the temperature in some scenes reached over 37 degrees, and the ash itself was mostly real, which some actors complained about. The first official promotional video for the film was released on August 21 (2013), which happened to be the birthday of Carrie-Anne Moss, the performer of one of the roles.
