Henry Cavill‘s upcoming Highlander remake gets a possible delay in its release date. Recent reports have suggested that production on the highly anticipated project has been briefly halted, likely postponing its release.
Will Henry Cavill’s Highlander remake release date get delayed?
Yes, Henry Cavill’s Highlander remake has delayed production following an injury the actor suffered during training.
On September 11, it was reported that Cavill sustained the injury during the movie’s pre-production. However, the nature of the injury and its cause remain unknown. The incident has pushed back the movie’s production, which, the report speculates, could begin in early 2026.
As per previous reports, the production of the movie was originally set to begin this fall but has now been postponed for a few months. Whether or not the delay will affect its release date remains to be seen. According to a previous statement by director Chad Stahelski, fans could expect the film to arrive in 2027 or 2028. This release window is now prone to a major shift.
Stahelski, who is known for directing the John Wick film series, was approached by Summit Entertainment to helm the reboot of Highlander. The director had then talked about his creative vision for the film and turning it into a trilogy. The plot details of the movie remain under wraps.
The Highlander remake was originally in development under Lionsgate before moving to Amazon MGM Studios for official production. In addition to Henry Cavill as Connor MacLeod, the movie has welcomed Dave Bautista, Russell Crowe, Marisa Abela, Karen Gillan, Djimon Hounsou, and Max Zhang as its cast members.
The original franchise began with the 1986 Highlander film starring Christopher Lambert as MacLeod, along with Sean Connery, Roxanne Hart, and Clancy Brown. It went on to become a cult classic, spawning a string of sequels and television shows.
