DreamWorks Start On Gladiator Sequel

Cindy Pearlmen over at Chicago Sun Times reported that their are plans by Dreamworks to start on a Gladiator sequel.

"We've started working on it. We have an idea," says Dreamworks honcho Walter Parkes.

Will Russell Crowe be back (not easy given that he didn't have a pulse at the end of the last film)? "Maximus is dead-dead-dead, no coming back and the story picks up things 15 years later," says Parkes.

As for getting Russell back as a ghost or a vision, Parkes brightens. "That's not an easy one, but believe me we've tried to mull over all the possibilities," he says.
