Djimon Hounsou will not be a part of Pedro Pascal’s Gladiator 2
Some performers are regarded to be reliable predictors of a film’s success. They know how to make any task enjoyable. Their presence merely brightens the ambiance, making you feel as if the movie, show, or interview never ends. Pedro Pascal is an example of such an actor, who has become a fan favorite in every genre he has appeared in, from Game of Thrones to Star Wars to The Last of Us. However, he will miss out on the chance to act with an equally talented actor in his upcoming film.
Djimon Hounsou excluded from the cast of Gladiator 2
Pascal’s Gladiator sequel is one of the most anticipated films of 2024, and a few of the original actors were poised to return, including Djimon Hounsou, who played Juba. However, this is not the case anymore. In a recent interview, Hounsou told BroBible’s Post Credit Podcast, “Honestly, no. And this was a pure accident in the way it unfolded. I was going to be part of it. Circumstances dictated it to be something different.”
