This makes him clumsy, and he accidentally knocks down trees and Cacofonix's house. Obelix falls in love with Panacea, a village girl who went away for two years and comes back an attractive woman. When the Romans fail to defeat the Gauls, Cæsar allows Asterix, Obelix and Cacofonix to leave while Caius Fatuous begins a new career as a rower aboard the Phoenician ship. Asterix and Obelix defend Cacofonix against them. Cæsar sends in first the gladiators, who refuse to fight, preferring Asterix's word games, and then the troops. When Cacofonix is thrown to the lions, he sings and the lions run for their lives.
The following day in the circus, Asterix and Obelix take part in the chariot race. Meanwhile, Asterix has trained his fellow gladiators to enjoy word games, and they locate Cacofonix, who has been singing. Asterix and Obelix volunteer to join his gladiator school, following which Caius Fatuous informs Cæsar, who threatens to throw him to the lions if the circus goes wrong. Meanwhile Asterix and Obelix go to the baths where Caius Fatuous observes them and decides to recruit them as gladiators. Asterix and Obelix travel on Ekonomikrisis' Phoenician ship to Rome, meeting the Pirates on the way, while Cacofonix is introduced to Cæsar, who gives him to gladiator trainer Caius Fatuous to either train as a gladiator or throw to the lions at the next event in the Colosseum. They assault the fort but learn that Cacofonix has been put on a galley for Rome. After Picanmix witnesses the kidnapping and informs Asterix and Obelix, the villagers retaliate. In the Roman fort Compendium, Prefect Odius Asparagus orders Centurion Gracchus Armisurplus to kidnap Cacofonix, the Bard. Unlike the first two Asterix films, which were adapted from one comic book adventure each, and the previous Asterix film, The Twelve Tasks of Asterix, which was a wholly original story, Asterix Versus Cæsar was made by combining and adapting two Asterix comics: Asterix the Gladiator and Asterix the Legionary. Although The Twelve Tasks of Asterix had proved how popular and financially rewarding an animated Asterix film could be, sadly that success was tainted by the death soon after of one of Asterix's creators, writer René Goscinny.
