As mentioned, Scott has hinted at a way of bringing Maximus back. Certainly, Crowe is interested, having told E! Online in 2020: “I can tell you those conversations have been going on since the last day of shooting the last one. Rumours have abounded of Crowe's involvement with Thor Love and Thunder co-star Chris Hemsworth playing his son Lucius.

Russell Crowe Returns To Gladiator Location 22 Years Later With ... (Screen Rant)

Accompanied by his family, Russell Crowe returns to Rome's Colosseum, a central location in Gladiator, 22 years after the release of the beloved film.

It's unknown, however, what time period the film will take place in and whether it will see the return of the iconic Colosseum. Twenty-two years after the release of Gladiator, Crowe has now returned to the Colosseum in Rome with his family in tow, as seen in a new picture posted to his Twitter account. Although Gladiator takes place in locations across the ancient Roman Empire, much of the story is contained to the Colosseum in Rome. After Maximus (Crowe) becomes a slave and survives his first match in a smaller gladiator ring, he accompanies his slaver to Rome. There, he is once more forced to fight, but this time in the massive Colosseum for crowds of thousands.

Ethan Hawke: Russell Crowe, Johnny Depp 'Broke' Peter Weir (TheWrap)

The "Dead Poets Society" director hasn't made a movie since 2010.

“[Newman] was resisting becoming a brand at the same time that the industry was telling him that you’ve gotta pay to play. I think Harrison Ford and Gerard Depardieu were his sort of actors,” he said, referring to the stars of Weir films “Witness” and “Green Card.” “They were director-friendly and didn’t see themselves as important.” At the time, a spokesman for Warner Bros. said, “Peter moved on from this film because his interpretation of it differed greatly than that of the studio and producers.”

The compromise was to film two days in the UK and the rest in Malta. This was Hookings’ third time filming in Malta and he fell in love with the country and the work ethic of the local film crew.

Ethan Hawke Says Peter Weir Retired From Filmmaking After ... (The Playlist)

Ethan Hawke says bad experiences with Russell Crowe and Johnny Depp are to blame for Oscar-nominated filmmaker Peter Weir's retirement.

All that to say, if Weir has “lost interest” in making films, then it’s definitely better that he stepped away and didn’t just begrudgingly continue. For those who don’t know the history, Weir directed “Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World,” which stars Russell Crowe in the lead role. To have the budget to do ‘The Truman Show’ or ‘Master and Commander,’ you need a Jim Carrey or Russell Crowe. I think Harrison Ford and Gerard Depardieu were his sort of actors.

"But this man, Russell Crowe, has given Rome more than they could ever pay him in a lifetime by making Rome a more, it already was, important holiday destination." Photography or video is strictly forbidden. Others were quick to jump to Crowe's defence, attesting to his good character and saying he was worthy of the experience, especially after his work in the film Gladiator. "We were given access to rooms, perspectives and parts of the collection you don't get to see as a regular tourist," he wrote. In the initial Tweet, Crowe included the phrase, "sono al servicio di Roma," which translates to 'I am in the service of Rome'. Yet, one user said it looked like the opposite. "I'm not sure there's a more special privilege in the world than to hold the key for the Sistine Chapel and to experience it's glory in silence," he wrote.

Thor: Love and Thunder looks completely bonkers from everything we've seen so far and that's saying a lot for a film that follows the insanity of Thor: Ragnarok. Taika Waititi is returning to direct Love and Thunder, and even he says that this is the craziest film he's ever created. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. "If you wrote down all the elements of this film, it shouldn't make sense," the director added, "It's almost like it shouldn't be made. Director Taika Waitti introduces us to a bunch of new characters with Gorr, the God Butcher (Christian Bale), and even the Greek God Zeus (Russell Crowe). Crowe made a brief debut in the film before being killed by Thor, and it turns out that he could have played a much different character. Marvel Studios unleashed Thor: Love and Thunder on us earlier this month and the film was filled with surprises. Concept I did for Thor: Love and Thunder at @odd_studio. Thanks to Creature/Prosthetic Designer & Supervisor @adman855 for bringing me on board.
