A New Highlander?

.....Considering how horribly bad, rotten, and disgusting the past couple of sequels have been, I don't know whether to be excited about this or afraid that it is happening...

"Highlander To Live Again

Summit Entertainment is developing a reboot movie of 1986's SF cult hit Highlander, with Iron Man co-writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway on board to pen the reimagining, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The original Highlander starred Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery and Clancy Brown as immortal beings battling among humans, hunting down one another and collecting more power. The film went out to spur several sequels and TV series, as well as games, books and other spinoffs.

Summit acquired the remake rights from Davis/Panzer Productions. Peter Davis, one of the original producers of the 1986 film, also will produce the new film."

.....Highlander is the only movie where I actually liked Christopher Lambert as an actor. It'll be interesting to see who they get to take his place. Somehow I doubt that Sean Connery is going to take part again. :-)

.....Just wait until they decide to do a remake of Knightriders! Be afraid! Be Very Afraid! :-)
