All Access ‘American Gladiators’

“American Gladiators” was a true 90’s television phenomenon. Who could forget Ice, Malibu, Laser, Hawk and Nitro? Not NBC, who’s bringing it back bigger, stronger and faster… and with The Hulk at the helm!

“The set is nuts,” Hulk told Access Hollywood. “I’ve been on sets where they spent a little bit of money, but this set – they went crazy!”

“American Gladiators” is the ultimate spectacle of strength, which takes place on a massive 12,000 square foot sound stage.

NBC is gearing up to launch the revival of the classic competition show, in which super strong citizen contenders take on the 12 super human gladiators in Roman-inspired games.

“Things are bigger and faster,” Hulk said of the new version. “Now we’ve got water. I wish it was shark infested. It’s not shark infested.”

Instead of falling on stunt pads during the all mighty joust, the weak are plunged into a pool.

Another classic game from the old version is also returning – The Pyramid!

Contestants will try to claw their way up to the top, but mostly, the Gladiators will be tossing them right back down.
