Paul Mescal with blood in his forehead, holding a sword in 'Gladiator II'.
The Big Picture Paramount Pictures is preparing to send audiences into the Colosseum with Gladiator II, the long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott's Academy Award-winning action flick Gladiator. Ahead of the film springing to life this November, Empire Magazine has released two new images of the project, which show off new looks at two of Gladiator II's A-list stars, Paul Mescal and Pedro Pascal, while also giving some more details about the filming process.
Scott, fresh off directing Gladiator II, described the film as "the best thing I’ve ever made," though he has "made a few good'uns." The legendary director said of Gladiator II, "It's full-bore, brutal action," which is seemingly evidenced by the pictures. Mescal also spoke about the physical elements of playing a gladiator, telling Empire, "I had always had a kind of latent ambition to do something that was more muscular and physical.
