Headline: Ridley Scott denies Denzel Washington's Gladiator II same-sex kiss claims

Caption:

The Oscar-winning actor hit headlines last week when he revealed during an interview that he "kissed a guy full on the lips" for a scene in Scott's action epic but it was cut from the final movie. When asked by Variety, about Washington's comments during the Los Angeles premiere, the British director shut down the claim. "No, that's bulls**t. They never did. They acted the moment - it didn't happen." Meanwhile, Washington told the outlet on the red carpet that his remarks had been overblown and it was simply "a peck" on the lips.
