Bautista Is Highlander Reboot Villain?

Dave Bautista seems to be popping up more regularly in manly movies these days.  Next up are SPECTRE and a reboot of Kickboxer.  Another possible reboot is Highlander, again as the villain.

Latino Review broke the news with Bautista slated to take on Clancy Brown’s role of The Kurgan from the original 1986 film. The Kurgan first encounters Connor MacLeod on the battlefield in 16th century Scotland, where he discovers his foe is also immortal. The two meet again for their final battle in modern-day New York.

Minus the ‘Queen’ soundtrack, the original was alpha as fuck, with Sean Connery appearing as the Highlander’s mentor.  But I don’t know if Bautista will be able to outdo Clancy Brown.  That guy was on another level and in fact if you ask me, would’ve been one of the few men to make a great alternate T-800.
