The world premiere of the film "Gladiator 2" by British director Ridley Scott takes place in the middle. This film represents a brutal and bloody continuation of the legendary movie with Russell Crowe, which brought the director immense success 25 years ago. In the second part of the film, the main role is played by Denzel Washington, and the new generation of stars completely refreshes the picture.
The events of the film unfold in Ancient Rome 15 years after the events of the first part, which managed to win five Academy Awards, including Best Film and Best Actor. The film brings in enormous box office collections worldwide.
Ridley Scott, who is soon celebrating his 87th birthday, employs all his cinematic techniques in the second part, including breathtaking landscapes, such as the naval battle in Colysium, full of water and running, or a showdown between a wrestler and a giant or raging gorillas, using 3D technology.
The British director included in his two-hour film harsh realities departing from historical facts. Before the premiere of "Gladiator 2" in Paris, where the film hits the screens in the middle, Connie Nielsen, who starred as Lucilia, told the French Press Agency that "the desire to continue this story is always present" with Ridley Scott.
