Initial reviews have been extremely positive. Eric Davis from Fandango Comment on progress:

We only saw 5 minutes of ‘Gladiator 2’ and oh my! Massive battle in the Colosseum, in shark-infested waters. against wild animals. The performance against a man riding a rhinoceros seems fierce in every way. I watched 5 minutes of ‘Gladiator 2’. It looks massive and the footage is packed with epic action both inside and outside the Colosseum. I loved the first movie and this looks like a great sequel.

The tape will come November 2024.
