Gladiator ou Gladiateur au Québec et au Nouveau-Brunswick est un film américano-britannique réalisé par Ridley Scott et sorti en 2000. Gladiator revisite le genre du péplum, dont les derniers films majeurs avaient été réalisés dans les années 1960. Le film ne se fonde pas sur des événements réels mais reprend les noms et certains traits de personnalité de l'empereur Marc Aurèle et de ses enfants Commode et Lucilla. L'intrigue raconte ainsi la chute du général romain Maximus Decimus (Russell Crowe), destiné à devenir le successeur de Marc Aurèle (Richard Harris), avant que l'empereur ne soit assassiné et le général brutalement trahi et laissé pour mort par l'ambitieux et maléfique Commode (Joaquin Phoenix) qui en profite pour revêtir la pourpre. Maximus, dont la famille a été massacrée, va devenir un esclave gladiateur, conquérir le cœur du peuple romain par ses talents de combattant dans l'arène du Colisée et finalement affronter Commode dans un ultime combat. Connie Nielsen, Ralf Moeller, Djimon Hounsou et Derek Jacobi font aussi partie de la distribution. Outre le fait qu'il fut un succès commercial, avec des recettes dépassant les 450 millions de dollars américains pour un budget de 103 millions de dollars, le film a remporté de nombreux prix, en particulier cinq Oscars récoltés lors de la 73e cérémonie des Oscars (dont celui du meilleur film et celui du meilleur acteur pour Russell Crowe).
