Step into the Arena, Gladiator II Has Arrived! Ridley Scott’s Gladiator II has officially hit theatres, delivering his most ambitious action scenes to date—and our teams were at the heart of it all. Led by VFX Supervisor Christian Kaestner and VFX Producer Jeanne-Elise Prevost, our talented artists brought Scott’s vision to life, delivering 136 epic shots. The postvis, expertly handled by our FPS team led by Visualization Supervisor Darrin Hofmeyr, was instrumental in shaping these gladiatorial sequences. From the chaos of a bloodied baboon frenzy to a fierce duel with a rhino, and the hauntingly stylized River Styx environment, every scene was crafted with meticulous attention to detail. By combining cutting-edge VFX with Ridley Scott’s visionary storytelling, we helped turn ambitious concepts into true entertainment. Gladiator II is now playing in theatres worldwide. #VFXbyFramestore #CGI #Creatures #postvis #GladiatorII
