The upcoming Highlander movie can be a household affair, as wrestler Drew McIntyre has joined the movie as Henry Cavill’s brother.
Per Deadline, the two-time WWE champion will play Angus MacLeod, brother to Cavill’s Connor. Within the unique film, Angus was performed by James Cosmo; he’s one in every of Connor’s cousins featured in flashbacks to the Sixteenth-century Scottish Highlands. After Connor died and skilled his first Quickening, Angus was the one one who didn’t reject him outright and ordered their clan to banish his cousin moderately than burn him on the stake.
Highlander is McIntyre’s second appearing venture following The Killer’s Sport from February and reunites him with that movie’s lead, Dave Bautista. In Highlander, the pair are joined alongside Cavill by the beforehand forged Russell Crowe, Karen Gillan, Djimon Hounsou, Marisa Abela, and Max Zhang. Director Chad Stahelski beforehand said this reboot would convey with it some new additions to the sequence’ mythology, together with some new Immortals.
Pre-production on Highlander was delayed after Cavill’s latest training injury. Manufacturing is now set to start in early 2026. We’ll have extra information on the Highlander reboot because it emerges, which can clearly take a while whereas Cavill heals up.
