I believe his father was fairly ambiguous in the original film. I don’t know that he was ever intended to be Maximus’ son, but be did have a bond with Lucius, and be was definitely implied to be an old lover and likely a mashing buddy of his mother’s.
I saw the trailer of the movie and saw that lucius is somehow the son of maximus… couldn’t they cut that part instead?

I’m sure it’s technically possible, I still find it dumb.
