Last week actor Denzel Washington shared that he kissed a man on the lips in Gladiator II in a scene that was left on the cutting room floor [click here if you missed that].
Director Ridley Scott claims it never happened...
From Variety
Denzel Washington may have said that his same-sex kiss in “Gladiator II” was cut from the movie because the powers that be got “chicken,” but, according to director Ridley Scott, the kiss may not have happened at all.
“No, that’s bullsh!t,” Scott told me Monday night at the “Gladiator II” premiere in Hollywood. He later added, “They never did. They acted the moment — it didn’t happen.”
Washington, meanwhile, claimed that it was simply a “peck” on the lips. “It really is much ado about nothing,” Washington said at the premiere. “They’re making more of it than it was. I kissed him on his hands, I gave him a peck and I killed him.”
