StudioCanal has revealed an upcoming brand new Blu-ray release of Russell Mulcahy’s filmHighlander (1986), starring Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery, Roxanne Hart, Clancy Brown, and James Cosmo. The release will be available for purchase on June 13. Check out the restoration trailer above.
Beyond that, nothing has been confirmed in terms of new stuff.
Synopsis: Connor McCloud (Christopher Lambert) is a Scotsman from the Middle Ages who discovers that he cannot be killed in battle. Cast out by his clan, who believe him to be a witch, he is befriended by another Immortal, Ramirez (Sean Connery), who teaches him of the Gathering, a magical event which can be experienced by one of their kind when all the others are slain. Immortals can only be killed by being beheaded, and in the Twentieth century McCloud has only one Immortal left to face in battle – the evil Kurgan.
Elsewhere, Dave Bautista was rumoured to be considered for the new Kurgan in a reboot.
