The Big Picture Fans, be prepared to be entertained as Riddley Scott’s epic historical drama Gladiator II has unveiled its first poster. The feature has been in the making for nearly two decades as the celebrated director searched for the right story and talent, and with the right mix in place and Paul Mescal leading the feature, we’re not far away from re-entering the arena.

The story is one of vengeance that still captivates fans, Gladiator 2 will pick up the pieces in the aftermath of the original, set two decades after the events of the original film.
