Denzel Washington rules on screen, but there is one thing audiences won’t get to see him do in his latest film.

When asked how gay the Roman Empire is, Denzel told Gayety about the kiss that didn't make it to the final Gladiator II cut. He said: "I actually kissed a man in the film but they took it out, they cut it, I think they got chicken…I kissed a guy full on the lips and I guess they weren’t ready for that yet.”
