It’s been eight months since the theatrical release of Gladiator II, Ridley Scott’s sequel to his iconic 2000 film Gladiator, and it’s now making waves in the streaming world. According to FlixPatrol, Gladiator II has claimed the top spot on the list of the ten most popular movies streaming globally on Paramount+.
And in doing that, the Gladiator sequel has outranked Tom Cruise’s widely acclaimed aerial action-drama Top Gun: Maverick. But what’s actually surprising is that a lesser-known film, one you’ve probably never even heard of, has managed to outrank Maverick on the same chart. Read on to find out where these three films rank on the Paramount+ global streaming chart.

While Gladiator II has topped the Paramount+ list, Top Gun: Maverick currently holds the third spot. And on the second rank is the lesser-known 2025 psychological action-drama, Man with No Past, a film about a man who has no memory of his past and how he uncovers the mystery behind his own identity. As of now, this film, starring Jon Voight, Marton Csokas, and Adam Woodward, has an IMDb rating of just 4.3/10.
