At the recent screening of 'Gladiator II', stars Denzel Washington, Connie Nielsen, and Paul Mescal praised director Ridley Scott's exceptional work. Washington, who plays Macrinus, emphasized Scott's ability to recreate ancient Rome, stating, 'He built Rome, so all we had to do was put the clothes on and start talking.' Mescal expressed awe at Scott's efficiency, noting that a complex battle sequence was filmed in just nine days. Nielsen, the only returning cast member from the original film, remarked on the improvements in production efficiency since the first installment.
