Henry Cavill Set to Lead ‘Highlander’ Reboot For ‘John Wick’ Director
Sword Fights From the 'John Wick' Director? Yes, Please.

Chad Stahelski, director of John Wick is set to direct the Highlander reboot. In fact, we reported that news a few years back. However, it seems to be picking up steam at this point. Superman star, Henry Cavill is set to play the lead of the new Highlander filim.

Cavill broke the news to THR during an interview. The idea of Cavill working on a film that is going to have sword fights directed by the dude behind John Wick is completely okay with us.

“Henry obviously has the physicality, but that doesn’t mean a whole lot if you can’t also carry the empathy of a character that’s lived 500 years, and I needed somebody who could do both. The character’s arc spans hundreds of years and he becomes many different personalities, all of which extend the timeline of his emotional growth. Then during our first meeting, my suspicions were confirmed: Henry was immediately riffing on the idea of the burden of immortality and you could see in his eyes that he can transform himself from being a young, vibrant soul to an old, wise soul.” Stahelski said concerning Cavill

Highlander is now set to begin filming in 2022. It’s going to be interesting to see who they come up with for a villain. The Kurgan played by Clancy Brown remains an iconic villain.
