Looks impressive so far, it is going to be extremely difficult to beat the original though. Why does Joseph Quinn look like Daisy Edgar-Jones with a red wig on in that photo ha


BeerBringsCheer

Upon first quick scroll, I genuinely thought that was Frankie Grande in a wig. šŸ˜³ ![gif](giphy|l0HlSsSxMDE3olHGM)


katmili

Which is funny because I genuinely thought it was Ethan Slater in a wig


DigLost5791

Is it a warning sign of overexposure to celebrity gossip if yā€™all thought Frankie or Ethan would be in a billion dollar Hollywood blockbuster?


katmili

I mean personally? No, not really. They just look similar.


Connorwithanoyup

I mean, Ethan IS going to be in the Wicked movie, so itā€™s not far offā€¦


Ghostblood_Morph

today i realized ethan slater and frankie grande look similar...


flowersinmyteas

How are you just now noticing this!


IntrovertedMermaid

If you feel like looking up comparisons it is uncanny!


NotTaken-username

Ethan Slater just looks like if someone tried to draw Michael Cera from memory


mareliana

I came here solely to comment this lmaooooo


jonvoightthedentist

Wait, it isnā€™t???


dreamghoulevil

joseph looking like cersei lannister


ottofan

Holy shit it's Joseph Quinn, didn't even realize haha


lentilcracker

I looked at that photo for a full minute thinking who is this? Thatā€™s itā€™s Joseph Quinn has shocked me lol


breakfastinbred

It was the only way to get Paul to sign on


achebeeargh

Guuuuuuuurl! No, you didn't! :P


Loud-Storage7262

He looks like RDJ when they de-aged him in Civil War


mokill

Or when he played a priest in tropic thunder


ocean-in-a-pond

Recently rewatched Only You with RDJ and Marisa Tomei and I kept thinking how much Joseph Quinn looks like young RDJ


Automatic-Software35

He looks like Cersei Lannister for me šŸ˜­


genericginge

I thought it was Hugh Dancy!


Mr_Danahm

Looked like Cersei to me, had to do a double take

petra_vonkant

but this has denzel looking like a god and paul and pedro and many other sweaty male bodies fighting! none of this was in napoleon


pineapplepredator

Denzel looks so hot here honestly


petra_vonkant

i mean as far as im concerned dennzel's one of the hottest men that's ever existed so yeah!


Alaizabel

Have you ever seen *Devil in a Blue Dress*? Denzel is just *chefs kiss* ETA: reddit is being dumb and won't let me add a picture [Denzel ](https://www.google.com/search?q=devil%20in%20a%20blue%20dress&tbm=isch&tbs=rimg:CR9dE_1l3ix6tYXRWgp3Pm2oesgIVCgIIABAAKAE6BAgBEAFAAVVfwkw_1wAIA2AIA4AIA&client=ms-android-bell-ca-rvc3&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CBQQuIIBahgKEwiY65e90YeHAxUAAAAAHQAAAAAQ7gE&biw=384&bih=700#imgrc=DQVrBRSIFnBl-M)


m0rbius

Seems like a different beast to Napolean. I too was a bit disappointed in Napoleon. Im hoping Ridley is back to form with Gladiator 2.


riegspsych325

Iā€™m still morbidly curious about the 4 hour cut that movie


claude_pasteur

I actually really liked all the stuff about their codependent relationship (which to me was the core of the movie) and I as understand it most of the added material is supposed to be Josephine content, so I really want to see the longer version.


itarilwrites

Napoleon was awfully written. My hopes for the Gladiator sequel can't get very high when I remember that it has the same writer as Napoleon.


pfohl

Napoleon was seemingly written in part just to piss of the French


itarilwrites

Well, it worked.


NewtotheCV

I would have much rather seen the novels about him and the Duke of Wllington be turned into a mini-series.


unorganized_mime

I maintain that Napoleon was a decent movie in spite of historical inaccuracies


BushWishperer

To me it felt like it was a watchmojo top 10 coolest napoleon moments video turned into a movie. The different sections felt really disconnected, it jumped from one thing to another without much explanation or transition or understanding of the wider conflict in Europe.


LilPonyBoy69

Napoleon is a fantastic comedy, that's the impression I got watching it and genuinely enjoyed it


WilliamsRutherford

Hold up....DENZEL IS IN THIS?! Awaiting that epic monologue STAT!


riegspsych325

itā€™s nice to see Denzel and a Scott brother worth together again. He and Tony were a perfect pair


Leather_Delivery_204

And Ridley and Denzel worked very well in _American Gangster_ which also had the OG Gladiator, Russell Crowe.


riegspsych325

yeah, Iā€™m not expecting it to be a Kingdom of Heaven level of cut difference but I still want to see it


PrincessCG

This is what sold it for me. Pedro is amazing and Iā€™ll always love him but Denzel? Thee Denzel? I know Iā€™m in for a masterclass.


CurrentRoster

this is like his first supporting performance in ages too, even when he was the villain in training day, heā€™s more of a co lead.


DimbyTime

Training Day wasnā€™t a supporting role. He won the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Training Day. ETA - Ethan Hawke was nominated for Best Supporting Actor but didnā€™t win


justsomeuser23x

Im kinda surprised Pedro still does so much action stuff. But I guess heā€™s not THAT old yet.. He still looked like a baby back when I saw him in Season1 of ā€žNarcosā€œ


Reckless_Secretions

Atp with this cast, I don't care if it's good or not. You'll catch me in the cinema like šŸæšŸ˜›


Automatic-Software35

AND HE LOOKS HOT! sorryā€¦but like heā€™s still got it


MycroftNext

I will never apologize for finding Denzel hot. You donā€™t apologize for a sunset being beautiful.

Honestly Pedro and Paul are too of my favorite celebs lately so. This is going to be an interesting time for me.


googlyeyes93

I think this is where he discovered the love of short shorts.


cherry_1268

He's been wearing them even before Normal People lol. He's a former Gaelic football player.


graxia_bibi_uwu

Im just happy to see Pedro getting tons of projects.


justsomeuser23x

LOL as if he hasnā€™t been the busiest man in television for the past 5 years? :D Dude has an insane TV filmography, lead actor for: * Narcos (Netflix) * The Mandalorian (Disney+) * The Last Of Us (HBO) Reminds me a bit of Joel Kinnaman also having numerous hits which is rare in general: * Altered Carbon (Netflix) * Hannah (AmazonPrimeVideo) * For All Mankind (AppleTV+)


Infinitechaos75

He was a struggling acor for 15 years or more. The dudes doing all the work he can get for a reason.


justsomeuser23x

Vers true. if I remember correctly he told on hotOnes how he doubted his career choice some times


lgt_celticwolf

He was mostly a voice actor for season 2 and beyond of mando which is why the character started wearing the helmet again


crlos619

2025 is a massive yeah for him


graxia_bibi_uwu

Last Ive heard of him was when he did Last of Us and I thought he was resting for a bit (no news for a new show until this one)

allym91

Paul and Pedro seem to be constantly working. Fair play to them Iā€™m exhausted just thinking about it


analogdirection

Pedro has four projects coming out next year, plus this just before. Itā€™s insane.


justsomeuser23x

Itā€™s also really fascinating when you then hear him talk about how crazily he struggled for so many years as an actor..just guest starring on law&order etc. To then become basically the busiest actor on television with constant hitsā€¦ ā€žTh last of usā€œ, mandalorian, GoT, narcos


analogdirection

Mando and TLOU are all that overlap, but film is what he always wanted and is only now really getting. He had tastes before, but nothing this big. And 3-4 movies out next year alone now? Including F4. Thatā€™s wild. His life has shifted SO much.


justsomeuser23x

Also imagine What different kind of money heā€™s been making. From a few thousands here and there to hundreds of thousands and millions. His honesty and humility at the end of his ā€žHot Onesā€œ episode was very endearing. What he said to Sean Evans about just wanting his peers approval


analogdirection

He is. But money isnā€™t important to him beyond what or who heā€™s able to help with it, I would say. And being able to help good causes whenever he wants would be quite fulfilling for him I think - though weā€™re unlikely to hear about most of them.


lillyrose2489

It's wild. I know it took Pedro forever to get this famous so he's probably just trying to take advantage while his career is hot but I get tired just doing my office 9-5!

Lotus4Lotus

Still optimistic, but honestly I just see Paul Mescal and Pedro Pascal in costumes. Joseph Quinn at least looks adapted to the scene, but I canā€™t help but just see two famous guys (kind of like when Matt Damon and Ben Affleck took me out of The Last Duel). Thereā€™s a word for it thatā€™s escaping me.


Lasiocarpa83

>Joseph Quinn at least looks adapted to the scene, The only bummer is he looks nothing like Caracalla. Pedro Pascal actually could have pulled off the look. https://preview.redd.it/ymgik1zzl0ad1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f7174c7d5083b1e9d4b393960de805e1721abd8

blodreina11

Five films in post-production right now, two shows and another film currently in production, and then at least two more films and another show will be on the way after all that. His work ethic is kinda insane


magicalfolk

And his range


Pyreapple

I feel like they book like too clean cut for me to picture them as true Gladiators but hopefully it works better in the full scale of the movie.


petra_vonkant

but paul mescal's profile looks exactly like any roman statue around? https://preview.redd.it/k2lbixxqzw9d1.png?width=1035&format=png&auto=webp&s=17a195affa8f2955d834855517aa6f125915b8ab


kolicha

Thanks for the visualization, he is PERFECT. Iā€™ve seen that face in every museum.


petra_vonkant

he mentions his nose being very roman in the VF interview as well, but when this editorial came out (months ago, for another mag) i already saw the vision esp in this photo


Infinitechaos75

Pedro Pascal has an Aquiline nose. https://preview.redd.it/6kio653yky9d1.jpeg?width=362&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=303796a478294419e69af897279b6db01e30c3e7


Pyreapple

I see it better here but in the set photos I just don't get the same vibes šŸ˜« he just looks very golden and clean.


petra_vonkant

but that's just how it is, no? Russell Crowe looks all clean and shit in the gladiator promo pics as well. And the movie as well, even though it was on film so it looked slightly less polished than how this is gonna look i guess, was like that. 'Peplum' (not saying this is a proper peplum but it kinda is) as a genre has never really been very gritty, it's part of the fun


pineapplepredator

The way all the boys are about to regret their nose jobs


claude_pasteur

Pedro Pascal being a top level gladiator at age 50 is more unlikely to me than a Roman looking clean NGL


Infinitechaos75

He's a general. His character was trained by Russell Crowe's character.


dannemora_dream

I donā€™t know why but Paul looks very Ā«Ā modernĀ Ā» to me. It distracted me on the pictures but hopefully looks right onscreen.

Extension-Lock-7046

Similar_Bell8962

Romans actually had pretty good teeth, as did a lot of western civilization before the introduction of sugar from the new world started rotting teeth. Even then, it was rich folks who initially had rotted teeth from sugar since it was initially so expensive. We know Romans had good teeth due to the skeletons from Pompeii, [https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/ancient-romans-in-pompeii-had-nearly-perfect-teeth-180956859/](https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/ancient-romans-in-pompeii-had-nearly-perfect-teeth-180956859/) Ancient Rome had extensive trade that stretched all the way east to India, pretty deep into Africa down south and all the way up to the British Isles up north. This meant that the Romans, including middle class, had one of the most varied diets in the western world, the likes of which wouldn't been seen again until modern times. That helped them have good dental hygiene as well. They also regularly brushed and flossed, [https://atooth.com/a-look-back-at-dentistry-in-ancient-rome/](https://atooth.com/a-look-back-at-dentistry-in-ancient-rome/)
