Ridley Scott's upcoming Gladiator sequel will feature the return of one key character from the first film, presenting a challenge for Maximus' legacy.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT One character set to return in Ridley Scott's upcoming Gladiator 2 makes the film's Russel Crowe problem worse. The highly-anticipated action sequel is scheduled to release in November 2024 and is expected to not feature the original 2000 film's main protagonist Maximus .
The inclusion of one original and significant Gladiator actor exacerbates the highly-anticipated sequel's Maximus problem. Crowe's performance as Maximus was such an integral part of the movie that it is still hard to imagine a suitable follow-up installment without his involvement.
There is the possibility that Crowe is concealing the truth in order to hide a secret cameo in Gladiator 2, which would solve the problem of the promise made between the two friends at the end of the first movie. Ridley Scott and the creative team behind Gladiator 2 could have completely built from the ground up without alluding to Juba, Maximus, or any character or event that took place in the first film to avoid these complicated continuity issues.
How Gladiator 2 Can Address Maximus, Even Without Russell Crowe Hounsou could be the only significant character linked to Maximus and the events that took place in the original Gladiator movie, making his role significant to the overall spirit of the two films. Maximus could be studied and revered by a new class of gladiators and Hounsou could be a mentor that tells stories of his remarkable bravery and achievements, inspiring those who hear of his tales.
