Gladiator 2 production costs soar to $310 million, set to be released in November

According to foreign media reports, the original budget of "Gladiator 2" was $165 million, but the production cost has soared to $310 million due to various reasons. However, insiders from the producer Paramount claimed that the net cost of the film's 49-day shooting was $250 million.

During the filming of Gladiator 2, Hollywood screenwriters and actors went on strike, so the filming had to be stopped for several months, which greatly increased the filming costs. In addition, the film also experienced unfortunate things such as staff injuries on the set and being accused of animal abuse by animal protection organizations. The filming process was very unsuccessful.

"Gladiator 2" is directed by Ridley Scott and stars Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal and others. The film is scheduled to be released in North America on November 22 this year.
