The Gladiator II popcorn bucket has been revealed, and pays homage to the gladiators of the Roman colosseum with a big helmet.
The new popcorn bucket was unveiled by Regal Movies on their Instagram page, and is essentially just a popcorn bucket adorned with Roman iconography that has a large, gladiator-style helmet on top of it. A collectible drink (with drink-sized helmet) was also shown off.
The collectibles will be available at Regal theaters when the film releases on November 22, 2024. It’s unclear just how limited the buckets and cups will be, but given how popular the collectibles have become, fans may want to make sure to get one early.
