Since what feels like the dawn of time, but really around 2008, a remake of Highlander has been in the works with directors and stars attempting to win the Prize, only to give up and move on. Now, director Chad Stahelski, who has been holding onto a take since 2016, has finally revealed some promising details about when filming will begin and, more importantly, when he hopes to present it to the world.
Speaking to Collider about the upcoming film, which will see Henry Cavill play the lead role of Connor MacLeod, Stahelski revealed he hopes to be heading to Scotland in a matter of months. “If everything works out in the next 24 hours, we’ll be shooting sometime in September. And in 2027 or 2028, you’ll be watching Highlander.”
