Exclusive Gladiators Trailer for The Asylum’s Latest Mockbuster
ComingSoon is excited to debut the Gladiators trailer for The Asylum’s latest mockbuster. Vernon Wells stars in the film, which shouldn’t be confused with Gladiator II, and is now available to rent and buy on digital storefronts, including Apple TV.
“When a once great gladiator’s betrothed is murdered, he vows to hunt down the killer and wreak vengeance. But when he discovers the murderer is no stranger, the gladiator must do the unthinkable—enter the colosseum once more to avenge his bride,” says the synopsis for Gladiators.

Gladiators stars Wells (Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, Weird Science), Myrom Kingery (The Fate of the Furious, Thor: God of Thunder), and Emma Reinagel (Cinderella in the Caribbean, The Exorcists). It is directed by Christopher William Johnson and is based on a script by Monroe Robertson. Johnson previously wrote the screenplay for Top Gunner: America vs. Russia, which starred Eric Roberts and was directed by Christopher Ray. Meanwhile, Robertson previously wrote and directed Planetquake and also put out 24 Hours to D-Day.
The Asylum has long made “mockbusters,” which are themed around and released near blockbuster movies. Earlier this year saw the release of The Twisters, for example. Other examples of mockbusters include Atlantic Rim, The Da Vinci Treasure, Snakes on a Train, and The Day the Earth Stopped. The studio is also known for its breakout hit series of Sharknado movies, and films like Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus and Ape vs. Monster.
The action-adventure film has an official runtime of 1 hour and 35 minutes.
