In a chat with Screen Rant, Scott described the history of the character and also spoke about the face-off that Washington could have with the likes of Paul Mescal’s Lucius Verus.
“He was captured in North Africa, and evolved into a free man because he was a good gladiator. But he hides that because also he’s now realizing the potential of his actual power.
He’s wealthier than most senators, so already has thoughts and designs of the possible idea of taking power from these two crazy princes.”
