Russell Crowe has said he is “slightly uncomfortable” with the fact that a Gladiator sequel is being made.
Asked whether he had spoken to Crowe about the role, Mescal, 28, said: “I don’t know what we would talk about.”
The sequel will see Mescal take on the lead role of Lucius, the son of Connie Nielsen’s Lucilla and nephew of Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix).
A sequel to the film, also directed by Scott and starring Normal People’s Paul Mescal, will be released in cinemas in November later this year.
