Analysing Film Posters - 'Gladiator II'

The third film poster I am going to analyse is for the epic 'Gladiator II', a sequel directed by Ridley Scott.

The poster contains the following conventions:

• title of film
• name of director 
• names of key stars 
• billing block towards the bottom 
• reference to other films made by same director 
• rating 
• social media links
• production company logos 
• sound logos 
• release date 
• reference to source material 
• dominant central image of main character
• other smaller images of other characters
• reference to genre through costume and props 
• reference to format
