The new trailer reveals the full identity of Paul Mescal’s character.

pretty much confirms what’s been assumed about this movie since the moment it was announced that this long-awaited sequel wouldfeature Russell Crowe’s Maximus and would instead focus on the grown version of Lucius, the grandson of the former emperor and the son of Lucilla in the original Ridley Scott. “Take your father’s strength. His name was Maximus. And I see him in you.” So there you go.

Other than that key difference, Scott’s sequel looks in many ways like a remake of the original. Mescal winds up a gladiator who fights for bloodthirsty Roman spectators, as well as a pawn in the political battles happening for control of Rome between several factions, including characters played by Denzel Washington and Joseph Quinn.
