Ridley Scott reportedly blamed Paul Mescal for ‘Gladiator II’ and felt he wasn’t “masculine enough”
According to Puck’s Matt Belloni, Scott was unhappy with Mescal after ‘Gladiator II’ and that reportedly contributed to the actor being dropped from ‘The Dog Stars.’
Mescal had originally been attached to star before Jacob Elordi replaced him. His team cited scheduling conflicts with Sam Mendes’ Beatles films, but that explanation has since been disputed.

The film aparently cost $70 million instead of the $200 million price tag, here's a idea how about don't pay the actors this 70 mil and use that to pay the people who's Jobs you're taking away instead
Gal Gadot defends starring in Doug Liman's "Bitcoin" movie with AI sets and lighting because "the train has left the station. You’re going to work with it or be out of the game completely."
“This was the longest contract I have ever worked on. It was six months for my lawyers to go through every scenario we could think about as far as the AI component of it. I did not want AI to have anything to do with my performance. We had to protect that... I am afraid of AI, but I am going to be afraid and look away? No. I am afraid but I am playing with it and learning it and trying to educate myself. The train has left the station. You’re going to work with it or be out of the game completely. I am trying to make the best of it and protect what I can protect. The AI component in this movie is for sets and the lighting. We had a broad crew and a lot of people were working on this movie.”
“It felt like a pure art form of creating a movie. I haven’t seen a single shot. As an actress, I wait so much. There’s the legendary quote: ‘You are being paid to wait as an actor.’ Here we would film nonstop because we didn’t have to wait for lighting. We would film on and on and on for 10 hours. It was amazing… as actors you’re always hot. You don’t cool off. We’ll see. It’s crazy.”
