I have to admit, this is the first time I'm hearing about this project. www.cbr.com/henry-cavill-highlander-reboot-tv-series/Hopefully we'll get quality swordplay if nothing else. But it seems like Cavill is immersing himself in the source material as usual, so that's a good sign.

With Henry Cavill in the lead and the director of John Wick at the helm this oughta be amazing.

Ah nice! This could be great. They showed Highlander in my local cinema recently but we were on hols so I had to skip it. Would have loved to see it on the big screen (for the first time).

Another update from the director:
Great call to choose Henry Cavill for such an iconic role - a very underused actor by the movie industry.

I don't really know what to think about this project; Highlander is one of my favorite movies and I can't imagine anyone else in that role but Lambert. When I see Henry, I see either Superman or Geralt. And how do they even think of finding a villain who can match one of the most legendary villains we've ever seen on film - Clancy Brown's Kurgan.

I liked the Highlander movie, most everything Highlander related after that was woeful at best, but I figure if the remake does better than Highlander 2: The Quickening and Highlander 5: The Source then it might be ok, maybe.

Yes, Highlander 2 was really bad, (Virginia Madsen was the only good thing about that movie), and I don't even remember the other sequels; either I didn't watch them or they were that bad.

Endgame was decent if you liked the TV series.
I'm hoping Cavill plays a new MacLeod in this.
