Glabrio's father was Manius Acilius Glabrio , consul in 152. His first consulate cannot be precisely dated, probably 173. In 186 he held his second consulate with the emperor Commodus . After the murder of Commodus, the future emperor Pertinax offered him the office of emperor, since Acilius came from an old noble family. However, Acilius refused.
