It was about a group of immortals beheading one each other till there's only one. Well, Summit Entertainment is planning a remake of that film.<br /><br />Scriptwriter Melissa Rosenberg (who worked on the Twilight franchise) has been hired to pen a script of this new Highlander movie. And Summit announced that Director Justin Lin (who directed the Fast and Furious movies) will helm the project and Neal H. Moritz will produce.<br /><br />Plot:<br />"In Highlander, after centuries of dueling to survive against others like him, Connor MacLeod, an immortal Scottish swordsman must confront the last of his kind, a murderously brutal barbarian, who lusts for the fabled Prize."<br /><br />A few words from Summit Entertainment and Peter Davis, long time producer of Highlander:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1OytkYdI6pFwKgwc6fOTb08W-ImnsTGRr6ruc5iOuWuIlTn9WevubqTT6I-BOp_9dgQZeOr27y8T2TaFEu89PHS9NTE_BKD91lgRbPnKunb4JsPFDAWCvNOLqqF8voZ52HFJV6E_C1d4w/s1600/Patrick+Wachsberger.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 56px; height: 56px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1OytkYdI6pFwKgwc6fOTb08W-ImnsTGRr6ruc5iOuWuIlTn9WevubqTT6I-BOp_9dgQZeOr27y8T2TaFEu89PHS9NTE_BKD91lgRbPnKunb4JsPFDAWCvNOLqqF8voZ52HFJV6E_C1d4w/s200/Patrick+Wachsberger.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611958822577318226" border="0" /></a><center><div style="width: 425px;" align="left">"We are privileged to have this amazing opportunity to reinvent one of the great franchises.

But I watched it again last year, and it didn't age that well: still hooked by the story, but the plot and the way it's filmed kind of feels shallow. So I of agree that a remake would be welcome, just to revamp the whole thing.<br /><br />But I don't know what to think about Melissa Rosenberg's involvement: are they going to transform Highlander into a syrupy franchise for teens and young adults? Hope not...<br /><br />Anyway, stay tuned with us for more information about the new Highlander movie!<br />:)highlanderhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16398605182399112976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6977055648387854176.post-29585297437808494191999-03-03T23:04:00.000-08:002011-05-25T23:05:18.298-07:00Privacy Policyhighlanderhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16398605182399112976noreply@blogger.com0
