Interesting. A reboot I may want to see. Who would be best for the Kurgan role? For Sanchez?

I hope they don’t change the storyline too much.

It would seem that the studio has forgotten the movies money line: “There can be only ONE!”

And how are they going to come close to matching the original’s sound track? Maybe Cardi b and Megan Thee Stallion can turn something out

Hopefully, this time around, they won’t cast a French guy to play a Scottish role, or a Scot to play a Spanish guy.

There can be only one ... or, you know, several.

So Hollywood has finally reached the point where they can do a remake and not have Will Smith or The Rock as the lead?

Real question - who will play Achoo?

This is a travesty. There is so much that is simply wrong about this.

Chris Lambert's ambiguous accent was perfect for somebody who had lived for centuries in different cultures and countries.

There are simply no current musical acts that will come close to Queen's soundtrack.

Clancy Brown will always be the Kurgan. Others have mentioned Dave Bautista or the Rock. The presence of either of those two will ensure I won't see it. Both are too well known and easily recognized to be a mysterious, unknown terror from across the steppes. The part needs to go to a much lesser known actor.

Connery is irreplaceable, though Gerard Butler could probably pull off a passable Ramirez.

Regardless of who is in it, they will be drowned out by over-wrought CGI, which is where movie makers go when actors can't pull of their parts.

How about something NEW that hasnt already been done?
Reboots, remakes repackaged garbage.

I loved the TV series, very well done. Loved those guys with those long coats on then they pulled out their swords and weren’t at it.

There is just no need for a reboot, the only thing they can do is have better Special Effects.

They did a movie on Netflix that was a rip off of Highlander which I saw, it was okay, I think it was called The Old Guard with Charlize Theron in it.

The TV series with Adrian Paul was the best.
