...the early versions of the Gladius were bronze, but the later ones were indeed made of steel.BTW, its design reflects the revolutionary, by that time, discovery that "cuts heal and thrusts kill", so its primary duty was for thrusts, although it was still pretty effective at cuts too. That idea was later lost many times, and then again "rediscovered", so some cavalry weapons, for example, went straight, curved, straight, curved again, then "almost straight".
That alone makes me want to see that move, although the director's name doesn't exactly fill me with great anticipation.
