Connie Nielsen joined "CBS Mornings" to discuss stepping back into the world of "Gladiator" to reprise the beloved role of the character Lucilla, 24 years after the original film.
"I was nervous," she said. "People really, really, really feel protective, I think, about the first one. A lot of people have been saying to me on the streets, 'Don't do number two, because number one is so perfect.'"
Nielsen explained that her decision to return hinged on the quality of the "Gladiator II" script.
