''Gladiators of Rome'' is an Italian AllCGICartoon movie made by [[Creator/RainbowSrl Rainbow SpA]], an animation studio jointly owned by Iginio Straffi and Creator/{{Viacom}}. It was Rainbow's first original film, and Viacom released it through their subsidiary [[Creator/{{Paramount}} Paramount Pictures]]. The movie is a comedy about a lazy and thick-headed Roman named Timo who decides to turn his life around and become a gladiator. It premiered in Italy on October 18, 2012.
To write the script, Iginio Straffi enlisted the help of Michael J. Wilson (the American creator of the ''WesternAnimation/IceAge'' franchise). It took over five years for the film to be completed, since it used up a lot of the Rainbow studio's resources. By the end of development, Straffi was so confident in the film that he floated the idea of a ''Gladiators'' [[Main/{{Spinoff}} TV Spinoff]] in [[https://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2012/10/08/gladiatori-di-cartoon.html?refresh_ce this interview.]]
The movie is notorious among Rainbow fans for [[Main/BoxOfficeBomb bombing at the box office]]: it only made back $10 million (€9 million in euros) worldwide...against an investment of ''$80 million'' (€70 million in euros). The financial loss spilled over into everything else that Rainbow was working on at the time. Most notable was the seventh season of ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'', which was hit with budget cuts halfway through production. [[note]]Two expensive elements of the previous 2 seasons (3D computer-generated segments and the Hollywood voice cast) were dropped from the 7th season entirely.[[/note]] It's safe to say that the ''Gladiators'' spin-off won't be happening anytime soon.

* AdvertisingByAssociation: Some trailers and DVD covers highlighted the film's connections to ''Winx Club'', also created by Iginio Straffi. The [[https://www.golddisk.ru/goods_img/46/46590.jpg Russian release cover]] is one example.
* ActionGirl: Diana, the gladiator trainer.
* AffectionateParody: Of serious gladiator movies.
* AncientRome: Set in this time period.
* CelebrityVoiceActor: The original Italian dub features celebrities popular in Italy, namely Luca Argentero, Laura Chiatti, and Belén Rodríguez.
* FatAndSkinny: Timo's two friends, Mauritius and Ciccius. (Ciccius is the fat one and Mauritius is the thin one.)
* GladiatorGames: Who would've guessed?
