Pedro Pascal Fans Can't Handle Themselves After Seeing New Gladiator 2 Footage: 'I Apologize For The Person I Will Become'

As a lifelong gamer and movie enthusiast, I must admit that the hype surrounding “Gladiator II” has piqued my interest. While I’m looking forward to the epic storyline and Ridley Scott’s directorial prowess, it’s hard not to notice the buzz around Pedro Pascal.


Given the immense success of the first Gladiator movie, it’s reasonable to assume that plenty of people are eager for Ridley Scott’s upcoming sequel, Gladiator II. However, not everyone might be anticipating the film for identical reasons. Whilst some may be drawn in by the promise of an epic tale, it’s evident that there is a group of fans who will attend solely to catch Pedro Pascal on screen.

A fresh trailer for “Gladiator II” has been released, and judging by some reactions, it seems like Pedro Pascal is the sole focus of attention in it. Many have expressed their admiration for the actor following the release of the new footage and pictures on social media this week.

The fandom surrounding Pedro Pascal, who’s gained significant fame lately through hit shows like “The Mandalorian” and “The Last of Us,” has been quite noticeable online. What stands out is the fascination with Pascal’s physique, particularly his muscular shoulders, which have become a significant part of his allure. It appears this trend has caught the attention of many enthusiasts.

If social media had been around during the release of the original ‘Gladiator’, we might have experienced an influx of enthusiastic posts about Russell Crowe, similar to what we now call thirst tweets. However, we’ll never truly know. Ridley Scott seems to have anticipated this trend when he assembled the cast for ‘Gladiator II’. Such promotional strategies are priceless; they keep the movie fresh in people’s minds, increasing the likelihood that they’ll go see it. As a Twitter user aptly put it…

And just like that, women will be thinking about the Romans more than men do!

The first “Gladiator” stood out as a unique cinematic experience, achieving both commercial and critical acclaim. Its sequel aspires to replicate that degree of achievement. With Ridley Scott himself proclaiming it as his finest work, there’s a strong possibility it might just do so.

Pedro Pascal’s charm and charisma could draw in audiences more effectively for one aspect of his upcoming movie compared to another. However, if he manages to deliver an outstanding performance while simultaneously captivating half the audience, it’s all good. Fans are undoubtedly eager to watch this new film for multiple reasons.

Pedro Pascal’s enthusiasm for his upcoming roles shows no signs of waning in the near future. Following the premiere of “Gladiator II” within a few months, he will appear in Season 2 of “The Last of Us”. After that, he is set to star in the “Fantastic Four” film due out next year. And following these projects, he’ll return to the big screen when “The Mandalorian & Grogu” revives Star Wars on the big screen in 2026.
