‘Those About To Die’ Teaser Trailer: Anthony Hopkins Leads Gladiator Series Debuting July 18
Director/producer Roland Emmerich (“Midway”) and Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins (“Silence of The Lambs”) have teamed up with AGC Studios to bring the Roman Empire to the small screen as Peacock has released a first-look trailer for the upcoming series “Those About To Die.” The new show premiering this summer is set to explore the world of gladiators, which has been iconically portrayed in the Ridley Scott action-drama “Gladiator.” Taking a page from history, “Those About To Die” sees Hopkins lead as the real-life Emperor Vespasian in the show focusing on the seedy and corrupt world of the blood sport.
