- Paramount’s featurette honors behind-the-scenes magic in Gladiator II, post-release.

- Gladiator II takes fans behind the camera to appreciate the film’s world-building efforts.
Gladiator II isn’t a perfect movie, but it’s doing decently at the box office. However, there isn’t any denying the sets of that film. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and the production of this film was certainly not hours or even days in the making. When you’re Ridley Scott, you can ask for a large enough budget to essentially rebuild large pieces of ancient Rome for your movie, and that’s exactly what they did for this film. Paramount must know that they need to give the people behind the camera for this film all the flowers in the world because they released a new featurette even though the movie is already out. Usually, studios will release TV spots with critics’ quotes or bragging about the box office after a film comes out, so it’s nice to see that Paramount knows that a large reason for the success of this film lies on the shoulders of the people of built the world Scott and his cast shot in.
