Gladiator II
WARNING: SPOILERS ahead for Gladiator II.
Gladiator IIis now playing in theaters.
In the end, Lucius would make himself known but would lose his mother in the process.
He was also just a boy at the time and thus, more defenseless.
Gladiator 2 is the follow-up to Ridley Scott’s award-winning film Gladiator from 2000. Scott returns to direct the sequel, with Paul Mescal staring as Lucius, alongside Denzel Washington and Joseph Quinn as the villain Emperor Geta. Gladiator 2 had been stuck in development hell for years before a script written by David Scarpa finally moved forward.
