For all the people complaining "Why is there a rap song in the trailer". "No Church in the Wild" actually fits the theme of "Gladiator". Listen to Frank's hook and Jay's lyrics. Hov raps about the Colisum on the track. As someone mentioned. Jay sampled "Gladiator" on "What More Can I Say". Also I have to be honest, it's kind of fake outrage. I was alive when "Gladiator" came out. The 1st time anyone started talked about it was after the Super Bowl Trailer. Guess what, that trailer had Football and Kid Rock for crying out loud. Once that Super Bowl Trailer dropped, everyone was talking about "Yo, there's some Gladiator movie coming out". So that was the main trailer that everyone saw first.
"But A rap song in the trailer doesn't make sense". Meanwhile crickets on this trailer, lol.
Looks like part 1 with a new generic main actor however I think it looks promising.
Don't sleep on Paul Mescal. Him, Denzel and the set design/cinematography is the reason I'm excited for this movie. Paul has been in 2 of the best films of the 2020s so far, Aftersun (he killed in this one especially) and All of Us Strangers. He doesn't have the sheer gravitas of Russell Crowe, but very few actors do.

I never heard of him and he might be the reason this movie underperforms. I just hope it's a good flick but he seems a bit generic and maybe too unknown to take this movie to higher levels. Hope I'm wrong.Don't sleep on Paul Mescal. Him, Denzel and the set design/cinematography is the reason I'm excited for this movie.

Never seen so much faux outrage lmao
Denzel doesn't have an accent!
Stfu. We have to endure every character having an English accent no matter the location whether it's period films or fantasy, game of thrones, lord of the rings etc.
Wasn't Russell a Spaniard in the original but I didn't detect a Spanish accent from him. For him it's ok I guess.
People are funny. Smh.
That wasn't my point.British and fantasy/historical fiction just works breh.
