HIGHLANDER will get a reboot too. Well, if TOTAL RECALL, JUDGE DREDD and ROBOCOP are getting new versions, why not this one as well? We already know that the reboot is in the hands of director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo from 28 WEEKS LATER, but the latest update is that Ryan Reynolds is the prime candidate for the lead role currently. If you remember, the fantasy adventure follows Connor MacLeod, an immortal Scottish swordsman who must sever the head of a brutal barbarian in order to become the last of his kind. He was originally played by Christopher Lambert and then by Adrian Paul in a TV show. Ryan Reynolds is rather busy these days, since he has to play a superhero in DEADPOOL, then another superhero in GREEN LANTERN 2, then a detective fighting against the undead in R.I.P.D. and he is also landing his voice in next year's animated epic THE CROODS.
