If there was one actor that would get me psyched for a Highlander reboot, it's Cavill. I wonder if he can do a better Scottish accent than Lambert...
49 0 ReplyOK, but who is going to replace Sean Connery?
14 0 ReplyMaybe Lambert?
16 0 ReplyGerard Butler or Ewan McGregor
13 0 ReplyMaybe an actual Spaniard?

If they get rid of the theme song I will never forgive them. But most likely we will get a cover by some popstar.
24 0 ReplyIt will definitely be an edgy subtle orchestral version of it during the climax of the movie. You'll love every second of it

13 0 ReplyThese reboots of movies that doesn't require reboots achieves only two things for me... it reminds me to go and watch the origial movie again, while guaranteeing that I won't bother watching the reboot.
9 0 ReplyRemake movies that had good ideas and poor execution, or visa versa. Don't bother remaking movies that are already good.
Actually don't bother regardless. Fuckin Hollywood can't get much right these days.

I just watched Highlander a few weeks ago and I think this one qualifies as good idea, poor execution. The one scottish person on the cast played a spaniard, and it's not just some scottish dude. Why didn't they make the main character a frenchman?! He doesnt even use a scottish sword!
3 0 ReplyYou know, I wish they'd just stop their derivative "remaking" and "franchising" and actually just start being inspired by the movies of old again.

I've been asking for this for decades. I really want a hyper violent modern highlander TV show.

Sploosh.
8 0 ReplyMaybe they'll do Duncan Macleod instead of Connor? Or maybe just keep the main premise and centre it around a new character
7 0 ReplyA new character that cuts the head off the old character like 5000 years in the future!

It didn't need sequels or a TV show, and it darn sure doesn't need a reboot. No thanks, Hank.
7 0 ReplyI get it. You just want there to be only one.

A reboot? There can be only one.
7 0 ReplyYESSSSS! I've been saying for years that it's time for a Highlander reboot. The original series is hard to watch now because TV writing, special effects, and stunt choreography is so much better now! A Highlander series would be amaaaaazing today! SO PUMPED!
Also, Henry Cavill is SUCH A GOOD CHOICE! He's a huge nerd that takes his roles very seriously and loves to keep the show lore accurate and deep!
7 0 ReplyIf it doesn't have a weird stabby sex scene it's not a proper reboot.
6 0 ReplyPlease don’t be space aliens again.
Love Cavill, love the campy first and third Highlanders (well, mostly #1), but the second movie is stupid.
3 0 ReplyHoping it’s a two picture deal and we get a rebooted H2: Quickening. Pumped.
3 0 ReplyOnly if we get an H3 that completely ignores a major plot point from H2 because it was a stupid idea that no one liked.
6 0 ReplySo just like Witcher Season 3?
