'Moon Knight's May Calamawy is among the names rounding out the cast of 'Gladiator 2.'
Paramount's highly anticipated sequel to Ridley Scott's box office phenomenon Gladiator has already assembled an impressive cast, and Deadline has reported that the project is rounding out its call sheet with Fred Hechinger, May Calamawy, Lior Raz, Derek Jacobi, Peter Mensah, and Matt Lucas.
While details remain slim for the majority of these players, Deadline reported that Hechinger is in talks to portray Emperor Geta. This was the role originally intended to be played by Barry Keoghan, but Deadline has now reported that Keoghan had to drop out of the project due to scheduling conflicts. Geta was a real Roman emperor in the early 3rd century, though it is unclear how closely the upcoming film will actually follow historical accounts of his life.

Scott, who directed the original film, is directing the sequel from a script by David Scarpa, and is also producing via his Scott Free banner alongside Michael Pruss, in addition to Doug Wick and Lucy Fisher for Red Wagon Entertainment. Executive producers include Walter Parkes and Laurie MacDonald.
Calamawy is known for her part in Hulu's Emmy-nominated comedy series Ramy, but it was her role of Layla in the Disney+ show Moon Knight that really put her on the map, thrusting her into a starring bid alongside Oscar Isaac. She will next be seen in the Duke Johnson-directed film The Actor. The most surprising, but welcomed addition to the cast may be Pascal.
While most plot details remain slim, more information about the film will likely come out ahead of the Gladiator sequel's release on Nov. 22, 2024.
