‘Gladiator 2’ props are being auctioned off so film and history buffs now have a chance to live out their fantasies

Gladiator 2 has finally hit theaters, and for those wanting to immerse themselves even further into the world of Roman warriors, there’s now an opportunity to own a piece of the film’s iconic armor. Through a prop auction hosted by Fandango, fans can bid on several authentic pieces worn by the cast in Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated sequel.

Own a Piece of Gladiator 2 Armor

From Roman infantry gear to Numidian armor and even the striking Faux Lion Pelt helmet, the auction offers a variety of stunning costume pieces. If you’ve ever dreamed of feeling like a gladiator (or maybe Paul Mescal’s character), this is your chance—though, fair warning, some items may already be snapped up by the time you check.

The priciest item so far? The Roman Helmet with Faux Lion Pelt, which is set to fetch over $2,200. Close behind is the Gladiator Cuirass, with current bids topping $1,600. However, if you’re not keen on splurging too much, there are more affordable options. For instance, you can grab a Numidian Helmet for $399 or a Roman Chestplate for $499. More serious collectors can aim for the Praetorian armor, with the cuirass priced at $599 and the helmet at $999.

Unfortunately, Paul Mescal’s sleek two-piece leather Gucci set isn’t available, but the range of other items is still quite impressive for any hardcore Gladiator fans or cosplayers.

Gladiator 2 has made a massive impact since its release, especially internationally, where it’s already grossed over $220 million, despite facing competition from Wicked at the domestic box office. It’s off to a strong start, with the film’s $250 million production budget looking like it’ll be well covered.

While it may not surpass the original Gladiator in terms of story (a tough task given the first film’s legendary status), Gladiator 2 has earned praise for its action sequences and cinematic spectacle. If you haven’t seen it yet, tickets are available through the usual outlets, and with a star-studded cast—featuring Denzel Washington as Macrinus—it’s a must-see.

Get Your Hands on Gladiator 2 Memorabilia

If you’ve missed out on some of the auction items, it’s still worth checking out The Realest auction platform, where various pieces of Gladiator 2 memorabilia are still up for grabs. You might even walk away with a lion pelt to channel your inner Lucius—or perhaps just cosplay as Paul Mescal himself.

This is a golden opportunity to own a unique slice of cinematic history and feel like a gladiator for real!
