Added 2023-02-08 13:35:08 +0000 UTCGladiator 2 was just revealed to be set for release on November 22, 2024! Let's cover everything we know about the cast, the crew, the script, the sets, and many revealing leaks. We then cover the history which may inform the plot of Gladiator 2.
The long awaited Gladiator sequel is finally coming after more than 20 years of development. In this video, we cover the history of its long production journey. This involves many script drafts with all kinds of crazy plots, including one in which Russel Crowe is resurrected as Maximus, literally in the same way as Jesus or that he is now in a perpetual loop of reincarnation; fighting in the Crusades, World War II, in Vietnam, and finally ends up in the Pentagon. Thankfully, we know from Gladiator leaks and rumors that the actual plot has shifted to a more reasonable sequel set 25 years later with a focus on Lucius rather than Maximus. The role seems to be going to David Scarpa from such works as Aftersun, Normal People, and God's Creatures. Various interviews with Ridley Scott, Russel Crowe, and others have also indicated where they might be shooting, giving us a hint of what is to come.
