Trivia:
Harris researched a lot of Seneca’s letters, to understand the mindset of the culture from the period for the film.
Harrington had to lift weights between scenes to keep his muscles bulging, so that he looks stronger than all of the stuntmen he’s fighting in the film.
Sutherland has spent his whole life horseback riding, so riding horses in the film wasn’t a challenge. His biggest challenge although was learning to ride chariots, which he had never learned.
Harrington got hit on the head a lot on the set, beaten up, and his finger were broken pretty badly from sword-fighting.
A cameraman on the set essentially built a camera drone by mounting a camera on remote-controlled helicopters and they’ve used it in some of the filming.
Anderson and Bolt are huge Downton Abbey fans, so they hired Julian Fellowes to help write to assist with the screenplay’s language and dramatic structure.
The production shot in the real Pomeii for six days to film the base of the real mountain. They also shot the real bodies that were frozen by the lava.
The bulk of the film takes place in the gladiator arena, but they only built 25% of it practically and the rest is Computer Graphics.
This is the second feature movie collaboration of Kit Harington and Carrie-Anne Moss within the space of two years.
