I love just about any film involving the Roman Empire, so I'm all over this even if it ends up being a turd

Crazy that Ridley Scott is still making big movies at 85.

What would be the plot for it, the start of Rome's decline? The rebellion of Spartacus?

Haha.
Ol' Ridley...bless his soul. I'll admit, I've given up on more than one occasion, considering I think the vast majority of his movies are absolutely terrible, especially in the last 25 years.
However, every so often he'll create some magical gem, some movie that somehow escapes all of the bad bad bad Ridley Scott cliches that he packs into his movies. This includes movies like Matchstick Men, American Gangster and especially The Martian. You have to dig through a lot of garbage to find those gems though.
However, when it comes to him with sequels/prequels? Hard hard pass. His work with Alien and Hannibal Lector was entertaining for all the wrong reasons. And it's a sequel to Gladiator...one of the most 'meh' movies that has ever won Best Picture, I just don't trust Ridley to surprise me anymore.

This announcement by Ridley Scott should have been met with a “sure you are Grandpa” and then doubling his meds

We got the Austin version in 2005. You cannot outdo it.

I'm kind of amazed Ridley Scott still gets work given the last movie he made anyone even kind of cared about was Prometheus and it was a decade ago and controversial at best.

The highest-grossing movie of Scott's career was released after Prometheus, and garnered seven Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture. I'd say that bought him another decade of goodwill. |

Honestly completely forgot The Martian was a thing, good point. |

Maximus comes back from the dead, leads an army of undead Roman soldiers against the Nazis at WW2, stops the world from ending on December 21 2012 by destroying an ancient Mayan god, stops an alien invasion in the future, and then gets elected as the President of Earth.

Still not as crazy as the Nick Cave script. |

The cast he's assembling is the most WTF casting in all the best ways
