Filming of the second "Gladiator" will be postponed because of Paul Mescal

Ridley Scott ran into an unexpected obstacle.

Filming for Gladiator 2, directed by Ridley Scott, scheduled in Morocco for the middle of this year, will have to be rescheduled.

After the approval of Paul Mescal for the lead role in the film, it became clear that in the coming months the actor would be busy on the theater stage.

Prior to that, he played in the production of "A Streetcar Named Desire", and according to the contract, his participation in it ended. However, in the same contract there was a clause according to which the actor could be used in the same production, but in a different theater.

It so happened that the theater of the West End expressed a desire to receive a play with Mescal at home. And it will go all spring and, possibly, all summer.

Therefore, Mescal will not get to the set of the second "Gladiator" soon. At the same time, Ridley Scott himself believes that the dates will shift slightly - by a maximum of a few weeks.

Although experts do not exclude that the director may think about changing the actor in a worse scenario.
