Paramount Plus will soon have a new offering to entertain streaming crowds: Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated historical sequel Gladiator 2.
The follow-up to Scott’s Oscar-winning 2000 epic stars Paul Mescal as Lucius — the young boy in the first film who idolized Russell Crowe’s Maximus. Lucius’ mother Lucilla, who was Emperor Commodus’ sister in the original film, is played by returning actress Connie Nielsen. Gladiator 2 is set many years later in ancient Rome and sees Lucius “enter the Colosseum after his home is conquered by the tyrannical Emperors,” according to an official synopsis.
Gladiator 2’s cast also includes Denzel Washington, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn, Fred Hechinger, Lior Raz and Derek Jacobi, who reprises his Gladiator role as Senator Gracchus. If you want to stream the vengeance-filled spectacle, here’s when Gladiator 2 hits Paramount Plus.
