An all-star return to ancient Rome, and eclectic new sounds from the No Doubt singer

It’s tough to get lightning to strike twice, and the first Gladiator film is one of the jewels in director Ridley Scott’s crown. Still, with the likes of Paul Mescal, Joseph Quinn and Denzel Washington slipping into the sandals, togas and bum-skimming tunics, at the very least this is an eye-catchingly cast trip to Rome.
