Connie Nielsen is the epitome of Scandi glamour as she promotes Gladiator II in Sydney, wearing Stella McCartney
The hotly-anticipated sequel to Ridley Scott’s Gladiator has finally arrived, and apart from being deliciously excited to take in the sights of Pedro Pascal and Paul Mescal in leather skirts, we could not be more delighted by Connie Nielsen's reprisal in the franchise.
The Danish actor has picked up the gauntlet, returning to the silver screen in her role as Lucilla for the second movie, coming no less than 24 years after the original. Attending the film’s premiere in Sydney, Nielsen stunned in a lemon yellow wrap dress courtesy of British designer Stella McCartney.

Donning the wrap-over maxi dress from British designer's spring/summer '25 collection, Nielsen ensured all eyes were on her. Pairing the number with a bright red lip and Sabrina Carpenter-esque curtain bangs, the Dane took her cues from Old Hollywood glamour, looking effortlessly elegant yet understated. While it is unlikely (read: impossible) that we will see any Scandi looks from Nielsen in the movie, we look forward to hopefully spotting some as she promotes the buzzy film around the globe.
