With the Golden Globes behind us & The Academy Awards on the horizon, this Drama / Historical Tuesday, Aaron Alexander, Andrew Gordon, & John Humphrey unite to check out Ridley Scott's long-awaited follow-up to 2000's Gladiator. Picking up 16 years after the story of Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russell Crowe - A Beautiful Mind, Les Miserables, The Nice Guys) & Emperor Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix - Joker, Walk the Line), Gladiator II tells the story of Hanno / Lucius (Paul Mescal - Aftersun, All of Us Strangers) - forced to enter the Colosseum after his home is conquered by the tyrannical emperors Geta (Joseph Quinn - A Quiet Place: Day One, Stranger Things 4, Overlord) & Caracalla (Fred Hechinger - Kraven the Hunter) who now lead Rome. When discovered by a mysterious benefactor, Macrinus (Denzel Washington - Training Day, The Equalizer, Man on Fire), Lucius must look to his past to find strength to return the glory of Rome to its people... GII also features a striking turn from Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) as General Acacius, Connie Nielsen (Wonder Woman, One Hour Photo) as Lucilla, Derek Jacobi (Gosford Park, I Claudius) as Gracchus, Peter Mensah (300, Avatar) as Jugurtha, Matt Lucas (Wonka, Bridesmaids), & MORE!
