The first trailer for Ridley Scott‘s Gladiator II has just dropped from Paramount Pictures, and it looks like it’s going to be a tantalising watch, full of tension, epic action scenes and mesmerising visuals.
Not everyone was crazy about the ideal of this sequel when it was first announced, but going by what I’ve seen today, it looks pretty damn strong.
Here’s the official description:
“Gladiator II continues the epic saga of power, intrigue, and vengeance set in Ancient Rome. Years after witnessing the death of the revered hero Maximus at the hands of his uncle, Lucius (Paul Mescal) is forced to enter the Colosseum after his home is conquered by the tyrannical Emperors who now lead Rome with an iron fist. With rage in his heart and the future of the Empire at stake, Lucius must look to his past to find strength and honor to return the glory of Rome to its people.
