Gladiator's Russell Crowe calls Cicero in character as Maxmius in a fun video that doubles down on his character's death while Gladiator 2 films.
Gladiator star Russell Crowe reprises his role of Maximus for a quick call that challenges the original movie's betrayal and doubles down on his character's death while Gladiator 2 films. Crowe's role in Ridley Scott's 2000 historical epic saw him take up the sword of a disgraced Roman general who is forced to fight for his life in gladiatorial combat in the coliseum.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT As Gladiator 2's bigger and grander production continues, Crowe has shared a fun video through his personal Twitter account that sees Maximus return in a surprising way. In the short skit, Maximus arrives late to a filming location in Ostia, Rome, from the upcoming sequel, leading to him calling former servant Cicero for assistance as the place is abandoned, asking, "Where the men?" While Maximus is shocked to learn that the crew had already left, Cicero reminds Maximus of his tragic fate, bringing the gladiator's mood down as he accepts his lack of involvement in the sequel, saying, "I'm dead... It's perfectly understandable.
While these concepts for Maximus' resurrection in Gladiator 2 would eventually be discarded, it appears that Crowe will have no involvement in the sequel whatsoever. Despite Connie Nielsen reprising her role of Lucilla, Lucius' mother and Maximus' lover, the actor has firmly stated that he was not asked to return, despite receiving numerous questions about his potential role in the movie.
While Gladiator fans may be disheartened that Maximus won't return to the big screen in Gladiator 2, Crowe's video is a fun brief skit that pokes fun at the sequel's previous plans and speculation. Crowe's video allowed audiences to see Crowe reprise the role of Maximus with a twist while also seemingly doubling down on his lack of involvement in the follow-up.
