Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Two new Gladiator II images have been released, providing a closer look at Denzel Washington's scheming lord.
Total Film now releases new images from Gladiator 2, featuring both Washington and Pascal. The first features Macrinus on his own looking somewhat suspicious, while the second sees Acacius flanked by two Roman soldiers in full battle gear. Check out the new images below: Close What Denzel Washington's Character Means For Gladiator 2's Story Gladiator 2 trailers have already provided a strong idea of what role Macrinus will play in the story. Washington is depicted as saying that Lucius will serve as his"instrument," suggesting that the film will be adapting elements of real Ancient Roman history. Marcus Opellius Macrinus, after all, is a real historical figure from the 3rd century AD who played an important role in the empire's development.
Macrinus, the historical figure, led a coup d'etat against Emperors Caracalla and Geta . As is revealed in the trailers, Lucius becomes a pawn in Macrinus' larger political maneuverings, somewhat mirror the dynamic between Maximus and Proximo in the original film. Lucius isn't just doing Macrinus' bidding, however, as the story of Gladiator 2 sees Mescal's character also seeking revenge against Pascal's Acacius after somebody close to him is killed.
