Ridley Scott moving forward with Gladiator sequel
The story would follow the original's Lucius, the young nephew of Joaquin
Phoenix's Commodus
Ridley Scott is gung-ho on a sequel to Gladiator, the 2000 Roman epic that
garnered him 11 Oscar nominations and five wins, including one for Best
Picture. This comes from Deadline, which reports that Scott and his Scott
Free banner are leading the charge with Paramount providing backing.
The story will reportedly center around Lucius, the young boy (and nephew of
Joaquin Phoenix’s Commodus) who was saved by Russell Crowe’s Maximus in the
original film. Maximus, having died at the end of the first film, presumably
won’t be returning.

Scott is interested in directing, however, and he’s apparently speaking to
hotshot screenwriter Peter Craig about writing the script. In addition to
penning The Hunger Games: Mockingjay movies, Craig recently wrote the script
for the upcoming Top Gun: Maverick.
The director is currently at work on his first-ever TV series, Raised By
Wolves, which we’re a bit more excited for than a sequel to an 18-year old
movie. Scott’s sequel game, after all, isn’t the strongest.
