It's NOT Brian Cox.  Cox plays William Wallace's Uncle Argyle.  The actor you're thinking of is Tommy Flanagan.

It's Tommy Flanagan...Check Braveheart, Gladiator, All about the Benjamins, and my personal favourite Sons of Anarchy.

I think the actor you refer to is Brian Cox (although I can't find any credit for him in 'Gladiator'). Brian was the original Hannibal Lecter as he played the role in Manhunter (based on Thomas Harris's 'Red Dragon') in 1986. The chief protagonist was played by William Petersen of CSI fame.
thanked the writer.

That isn't the guy I am thinking of. In Braveheart, he joins William Wallace halfway through the movie. In Gladiator he is Maximus's servant and hung in the scene where Maximus escapes (or plans to and is thwarted).

He has some form of scarring running through both cheeks, chin to ear. Looks to be from cuts.

After more searching, I'm pretty sure the actor is Tommy Flanagan He got the facial scars after being 'cut' in a mugging where he stood up to his attackers. More details on the following link :-
