Gladiator 2 director Ridley Scott sparks fury in Malta by saying he 'wouldn't advise' holidaying on the island - despite government paying £48m for him to film there
Scott, 86, was discussing how appealing Malta is as a filming location with fellow director Christopher Nolan this month when he told the audience that he 'wouldn't advise going there on holiday'.
Another member of Malta's parliament, Adrian Delia, lashed out at Scott who 'mesmerized millions with tales of historic legend brought to life' but seems to 'have not managed to learn respect'. Mathieson, 63, worked with Scott on both his Gladiator films and has told a podcast how using multiple cameras rather than just one and paying little attention to 'bits of the set hanging down' in the shots are among its flaws.
