Gladiator II (English) Movie

GLADIATOR II is the story of a war prisoner who turns into a hero. Sixteen years after the events of the first part, the condition of the Roman Empire has further deteriorated. The empire is ruled by two incompetent emperors, Emperor Geta (Joseph Quinn)... and Emperor Caracalla (Fred Hechinger), who want to expand the territory while ignoring the woes of the subjects. At their insistence, General Acacius (Pedro Pascal) invades Numidia which is headed by Jugartha (Peter Mensah). One of the brave fighters in his army is Hanno (Paul Mescal). He and his wife Arishat (Yuval Gonen) fight courageously. But Arishat dies and Rome captures Numidia. Hanno, Jugartha and others are taken as prisoners and taken to the outskirts of Rome. Here, Hanno is bought by Macrinus (Denzel Washington) and the latter plans to make the former fight in the arena at the Colosseum. Meanwhile, Acacius is unhappy with the back-to-back wars. His wife is none other than Lucilla (Connie Nielsen), the daughter of the deceased noble king Marcus Aurelius. They and some members of the Senate plan a rebellion against the emperors. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
