Emperors! Gladiators! Nearly 1000 extras! We talked to Jana Carboni (makeup designer) and hair designer Guiliano Mariano about their immense work on Ridley Scott’s Gladiator II. How they were inspired by Fellini’s Satyricon and the Sex Pistols. Battling the heat and the elements to get Paul Mescal’s gladiator tan and body paint just right. Denzel’s manicured hands and much more.
Editors Claire Simpson and Sam Restivo had already worked together on several of Ridley Scott’s movies, including House of Gucci and Napoleon, before embarking on Scott’s massive motion picture Gladiator II.
Restivo has previously worked with directors like Michael Mann and Cameron Crowe and Claire Simpson received an Academy Award for her work on Oliver Stone’s Platoon. And, in a nice bit of symmetry with Gladiator, started her career as assistant editor on Caligula, with Malcom McDowell and Helen Mirren.
For AwardsWatch we talked about the sheer volume of footage Ridley provides them with every day, the research process, the kiss Denzel Washington says was edited out and much more.
