Russell Crowe Joins Henry Cavill in ‘Highlander’

Oscar-winner Russell Crowe will play Henry Cavill's mentor in the remake of "Highlander."

t.co

So he's not Ramirez, he's a "variation" of Ramirez, essentially replacement of the character. Lame
so what instead of a Spanish-Egyptian-Scott he'll be a Viking-Māori-Piriate!?
Cavil already reads more like Duncan than Connor anyway, this thing is all over the frikin place...

Still should be fun, I like both actors, curious to see their new take and their spin I guess. Will they still use the Kurgen as the main villain?
Or someone from the Phantom Zone?

I’m interested to see who is cast as Kurgen!

Michael Shannon complete the trinity!

 

[ObiWanCon]

LOL I can’t await to hear Crowe do a Spanish/Egyptian/Scottish accent.

 

[Dave McFly]

Michael Shannon complete the trinity!

He can be Kurgan

I think Crowe is a good pick for a Ramirez type character. He has done sword fighting before as well.

Kevin Durand should be The Kurgan

Damn, now I really feel the need to rewatch the original Highlander, it's been decades now since the last time. I weirdly hadn't even watched it when I actually went to the cinema for the sequel, which was far from really good. But shortly afterwards renting the original I realised why that one could have some fun cult classic quality without being a masterpiece. The 90s TV show was decent fun as well.

A remake really cold be a hit or a miss. But I'm curious.
