Gladiator Cop, also known as Gladiator Cop: The Swordsman II, is a 1994 Canadian fantasy action film directed by Nick Rotundo, starring Lorenzo Lamas, James Hong, George Touliatos and Claire Stansfield. While branded as a sequel in some territories, it is a reboot of 1992's The Swordsman, and reuses a significant amount of footage from that film.

Hong stars as a high roller seeking to reunite a priceless sword with its rightful owner, psychic detective Andrew Garrett (Lamas in a stock footage appearance), so that the latter can do battle with his champion, and settle a rivalry that started millennia ago when their respective spirits inhabited the bodies of general Parmenion and his archrival Alexander the Great.
