Famous Australian rock musician Nick Cave is well known for being an author of the “Gladiator” scenario, which turned to be one of his best projects outside of music business. However, his ideas that were implemented into “Gladiator” were not fully opened in the movie itself. As The Guardian says, Cave’s fans have found a text which is continuing general Maximus’s life and generally speaking gives the future to that heroic story. Following Cave’s version after Maximus had died in Colosseum he was resurrected by the Roman gods and received immortality. After he became immortal Maximus had participated in practically every war that came later in history including Crusades and even Vietnam war. Eventually his position in the modern days is to be someone big at the Pentagon. “We tried to go with Cave’s script. Russell didn’t want to let it go, obviously, because it worked very well. When I say ‘worked very well’, I don’t refer to success. I mean, as a piece it works very well”, said “Gladiator’s” director Ridley Scott. In other words, Nick Cave’s scenario appeared to be too large and not very well fitting into the “Gladiator” everyone knows right now. DreamWorks Studios also had decided not to go with such continuation and turned it away.
