This comes after the BAFTA winning actor admitted to strenuously working to get ready for his role ahead of the filming of the action movie.

Mescal told Graham Norton Show, “I was working with a trainer who circled me like a shark and said, ‘There is a canvas to work with.’ He went to town, and I saw him every day. It was fun,” in October 25th episode.

Gladiator II is set to release in theatres on November 22nd.
