Gladiator 2 is an incredibly exciting film, as it has the potential to finally break director Ridley Scott's 11-year-long legacy sequel losing streak.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Gladiator 2 is finally happening, and the highly-anticipated sequel can finally end Ridley Scott's 11-year-long legacy sequel losing streak. Ridley Scott has directed some of the most iconic films of the past few decades, creating franchises like Alien, Blade Runner, and Gladiator as well as one-off movies like Thelma & Louise and Robin Hood.
Gladiator 2 is the sequel to Ridley Scott's Best Picture-winning film Gladiator, with the 2000 film being one of the most iconic works made by the beloved director. Gladiator 2 will take place years after the clash between Russell Crowe's Maximus and Joaquin Phoenix's Commodus, with the film instead focusing on Commodus' nephew, Lucius.
The first legacy sequel to one of Ridley Scott's own films was released in 2012: Prometheus. Ridley Scott directed and produced the Alien prequel, and while it does have its supporters, many fans of the original Alien strongly dislike the movie. Prometheus was torn apart for over-explaining the lore of the Alien franchise while also failing to recapture the tone of the original.
Why Gladiator 2 Can End Ridley Scott's Legacy Sequel Woes All of Ridley Scott's legacy sequels have either been critical or commercial disappointments - but Gladiator 2 can finally fix this. The original Gladiator is arguably Ridley Scott's most critically successful film, with it winning five Academy Awards, including the Oscar for Best Picture. Gladiator was also a huge hit with fans, becoming a pop culture phenomenon that has resonated in the two decades since its release.
Not only is Gladiator 2 shaping up to be a critical success, but it is also shaping up to be a commercial success. Gladiator is Ridley Scott's second-highest-grossing movie, with it only being beaten by 2016's The Martian. Gladiator made over $500 million at the box office on a budget of $103 million, and a movie with that much success will surely do just as well with the sequel.
