In the years following the release of the first film, there were numerous attempts to write a sequel
Story
After his home is conquered by the tyrannical emperors who now lead Rome, Lucius is forced to enter the Colosseum and must look to his past to find the strength to restore Rome’s glory to its people.
Musician Nick Cave was invited to draft a version by Russell Crowe and Sir Ridley Scott
Their version focused on the more mythical elements of Ancient Rome, and would have seen Maximus reach the afterlife, only to be confronted by other souls who must yet ascend further.
He is eventually tasked by Jupiter and other Roman deities to return to Earth to find and kill Hephaestus, an ancient deity who has betrayed them
From there, he is resurrected as a Christian and finds himself travelling back to Rome, on a mission to stop the spread of Christianity, while crossing paths with the new emperor, Lucius.
The studio decided not to go ahead with this version, but the script is available to read online
The film would have ended with Maximus cursed to live for eternity, featuring a montage of the soldier fighting in the Crusades, World War II, and the Vietnam War, eventually revealing a modern-day Maximus working at the Pentagon in Washington.
