    Oh yeah this is the next film in the Gladiator Cinematic Universe. Gladiator 3: The Gladiators and the Furious will be out in 2026. Gladiator 4: Still Gladiating is slated for winter 2028.

      That's fake news, stop spreading false rumors. The next sequel has already been greenlit.

      3 Gladiator 3 Furiosa will integrate The Gladiators into the Mad Max Cinematic Galaxy.

      Honestly, I'd like it if Hollywood went back to making a lot of cheesy historical genre pieces, better than Marvel slop. We should have a series of highly anachronistic adaptations of Greek mythology where some hunky dude fights a claymation cyclops! I want Perseus with a robot owl goddammit!

        Grabbing the lathe and envisioning a post credits scene where a digitally de-aged Russel Crowe meets the new generation of Gladiator main character and looks directly into the camera and says "Are you not entertained?" then a rolling drum beat before it goes to black.

          Nah that's lame. There should be a scene where the Gladiator (whoever they fuck he is this movie) dies but gets resurrected by Mars and given a glowing death sword and told he needs to kill the 10 greatest Gladiators of all time, every one has a theme, like there's a poison dart one and one who... idk he throws giant axes or some shit, and he has to come up with a clever way to beat each one.

      You're forgetting the gladiator prequel in 2029 "Maximus: A Gladiator Story" before the remake reboot in 2030 "Gladiator" which claims to be faithful to the original story after the last 2 films had underperformed
