Denzel Washington experienced an awkward encounter with King Charles III during the London premiere of "Gladiator II."

Denzel Washington recently spilled on a same-sex kiss scene he filmed for “ Gladiator II ” that won’t make it to the big screen this month. “I actually kissed a man in the film, but they took it out, they cut it, I think they got chicken,” said the actor, who plays Macrinus in the “Gladiator” sequel, in an interview with Gayety’s Caitlynn McDaniel.

Paul Mescal previously revealed to Entertainment Weekly that a forehead kiss he gave Pedro Pascal was also scrapped from the film.
