The Highlander reboot that’s been in development since 2008 is the closest it’s ever come to rolling cameras, but it’s still facing obstacles. Last week, it was reported that Henry Cavill, who’s playing the new Connor MacLeod, was injured during preproduction, necessitating that principal photography be pushed back. Now Cavill has seemingly addressed this Highlander shakeup online with a poem and photos of his injured leg.
Admittedly, the former Superman actor didn’t actually mention Highlander in his Instagram post, but he did accompany the photo of his leg propped up as it heals with the poem Invictus by William Ernest Henley. See for yourself:
