Russell Crowe – Ridley Scott
Before working together on Gladiator both these men were on the fringes of Hollywood. Visionary director Scott was in the wilderness after a disappointing run of films including GI Jane and White Squall. Crowe was waiting for a role that would propel him to super stardom after impressive turns in LA Confidential and The Insider. Along came Gladiator and after it’s release…well the rest is history as they say. American Gangster, Body of Lies, A Good Year (we can overlook that one!). We here at movies.ie can’t wait for their take on Robin Hood in the upcoming “Nottingham”.
Number of Collaborations: 5
