Henry Cavill has not been having a good time. <\/strong>The British actor abandoned his role as Superman after James Gunn and Peter Safran’s <\/a><\/strong>reboot of his universe, and has also had to leave the sword of Geralt of Rivia when he disagreed with the development of The Witcher<\/a><\/strong> series on Netflix. This has caused his career to suffer a kind of reboot, and although he has projects announced such as warhammer 40000, everything remains to be seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there is another fantasy saga that has just signed Henry Cavill<\/a> as the lead<\/strong>, so the performer won’t be away from his favorite genre for long. The franchise is Highlander (The Immortals);<\/strong> after five films and the spin-off series that ran from 1992 to 1998, it will get a reboot\u2026 and Cavill will be its main protagonist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new universe of action and fantasy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Highlander is a fantasy epic that tells the story of The Immortals, humans who can only die by decapitation and who have existed throughout the ages. The protagonist is the Scotsman Connor MacLeod, an immortal destined, like the rest, to challenge each other in duels to achieve a Prize <\/strong>that, in reality, no one knows what it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is an action saga that has received numerous installments and has been popular around the world, and now returns under the baton of director Chad Stahelski<\/strong> (the director of John Wick<\/a><\/strong>, almost nothing) in a reboot that still has no release date or shooting. Thus, the modern-day action genius will join the former Superman for an epic adventure that aims to become something more. Or so Stahelski has announced:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I think we have very good elements now. The trick is, when you have the tagline ‘there can only be one,’ you can’t just kill everyone the first time<\/strong>. Our story involves a lot of the same characters and things like that, but we’ve also incorporated elements from all the TV shows and we’re trying to do a prequel of sorts, so we have room to grow the property.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
