Gladiator 2
Weekend Box Office
Two films provide most of the box office for the second-best weekend of the year. Next weekend will be even bigger.
Box office
2000's "Gladiator" is tops, while his classic "Blade Runner" is only 17th.
RED CARPET
IndieWire caught up with Mescal and Fred Hechinger at the Los Angeles premiere of Ridley Scott's highly anticipated sequel.
Scott will look to shoot the film next fall after the "Gladiator II" actor finishes his run on Broadway in "A Streetcar Named Desire."
Interview
As Scott revealed this week, Keoghan had to leave "Gladiator II" to film "Saltburn."
Instead of releasing a longer cut of the highly-anticipated sequel, Scott is looking to create a trilogy.
Box Office Preview
After a slow start, it looks like a rebound month after a lame October.
Screen Talk
IndieWire's "Screen Talk" co-hosts Anne Thompson and Ryan Lattanzio have seen "Gladiator II" — and discuss it here a week after the fanboy-level roar out of last week's first screenings.
Gladiator-Sized
The star of Ridley Scott's much-anticipated sequel gained 18 pounds of muscle for his role as a scrappy warrior, but as he recently explained, the psychological changes might have proven more essential to his work.
"I think I was consciously trying to get out of my head the projections that people might have of what this film means."
Ridley Scott's sequel will debut at the November 13 London event benefitting the Film and TV Charity.
Trailer
Joseph Quinn, Pedro Pascal, and Denzel Washington co-star in Ridley Scott's epic sequel.
