‘Gladiator 2′ is one of the most anticipated films of this year, a sequel that few expected to see, but that Ridley Scott will be released more than two decades after the release of the original film. One of the best works of the British director, and that is why many dream of it being able to live up to it, and for this it will have outstanding actors, one of the most famous names being that of the Chilean Peter Pascala fashionable figure in the world of cinema and television, will play an important role in ‘Gladiator 2’.
What character will Pedro Pascal play?
Pedro Pascal will be in ‘Gladiator 2’ a general who ends up becoming a gladiator, very reminiscent of the story of Máximo Decimus Meridio, the protagonist of the original film played by Russell Crowe. Máximo was Hispanic, and Pedro Pascal fits perfectly into that definition, so we will have to be very attentive to possible parallels. In this sequel, Pascal’s character becomes a gladiator after becoming exhausted from sending the young people of Rome to die in war.
‘Gladiator 2’ and its cast full of familiar faces
An outstanding cast in which many suggest that Pedro Pascal could be the antagonist of ‘Gladiator 2’, and he is seen facing Lucio, the protagonist played by Paul Mescal. Another possibility is that Denzel Washingtonone of the most prominent actors in the sequel, has dark interests and could be the villain of the work.
From the first film, few actors and actresses return. It is played by Connie Nielsen in the role of Lucilla, mother of Lucio Vero, the protagonist; also Derek Jacobi, who was Senator Graco in the first installment. One of the figures that will be missed the most is that of the slave Jubo, played by Djimon Hounsou and who will not be in ‘Gladiator 2’.
