The upcoming sequel of the iconic Gladiator movie has officially wrapped up filming in Morocco, confirmed an informed source from the ministry of culture to Hespress EN.
The filming, which reportedly began at the beginning of June, came to an end on the day that the Moroccan minister of youth, culture and communication, Mehdi Bensaid visited the site in Ouarzazate.
Bensaid met the legendary director of Gladiator 2, Ridley Scott, accompanied by head of the Moroccan Cinematography center (CCM) Abdelaziz El Bouzdaini, Moroccan director and head of CCM’s Cinematheque, Narjiss Nejjar, and the minister’s counselor Youssef Britel.
The minister’s visit followed an explosion that took place on set, despite it being minor and not as catastrophic as it was portrayed when the news first broke.
The plot of Gladiator 2 takes place five years after the events of the first, and will tell the story of the son of Maximus embarking on his own journey.
Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington, Paul Mescal, and Joseph Quinn are among the cast members.
