Unsurprisingly Cave’s script was rejected, but once the initial “what the hell” reaction had subsided, a feeling began to emerge that what Cave was trying to accomplish was not quite as absurd as first appeared… even if initial impressions made it feel a million miles away from what made the first film such a success. Combine that with a story revolving around purgatory, resurrection, and a theological war between the ancient and new gods (along with more than a few retcons of the original story), and you have a film that feels so disconnected from what had preceded it that to even call it Gladiator 2 feels like blatant mismarketing. And that didn’t mean bringing in figures like Virgil or Ovid that would allow him to introduce this rich new tapestry while still keeping one foot in reality, but by literally including Roman deities like Jupiter and Mars to push the film into a far more fantastical direction. Rather than sticking with the grounded realism of the original film, Cave wanted to focus on the mythological side of Ancient Rome that had previously fallen to the wayside in favor of real-world elements like gladiators and emperors. The biggest change Cave brought about was to the film’s genre.

There is a logic in hiring him for the job, however. It might seem like an odd choice - and not least because Cave only had one screenplay credit to his name ( John Hillcoat’s 2005 western The Proposition) when the offer came his way.

To track down the owner of the surprising dog, rescuers went door-to-door in the local area with a photo of Abby and the Biehle Assistant Fire Chief Robert Cahhon. Haley explained that Abby's nails were outgrown and long, indicating that she hadn't done much walking in the cave.
