Ridley Scott’s New Movie Creates 1 Massive Challenge For Gladiator 2 To Overcome

Ridley Scott’s latest movie threatens to raise the challenge for his hotly anticipated next film, Gladiator 2. The Gladiator sequel certainly has its work cut out for it; not only is the follow-up expected to live up to one of the most popular action movies of all time, but it will also have to do so without the first film’s iconic protagonist and antagonist, both of whom died at the end of 2000’s Gladiator. What’s more, the upcoming Gladiator 2 has another point of comparison threatening to undermine it: Ridley Scott’s Napoleon.
