Gladiator II is just around the corner after what feels like an eternity of waiting for it. While this particular iteration of the movie has been in some level of production for a few years, the idea of doing a sequel to the Best Picture-winning Gladiator can be traced back to 2001, less than a year after the film’s debut. The film we’re about to see released in 2024 seems to have more in line with that original draft, but there was a proposed (but bonkers) script by songwriter Nick Cave that was being worked on in 2006 that would’ve taken the sequel in a much different direction. Let’s dive into it.
