Summit Entertainment has an eye toward relaunching the Highlander franchise with a remake of the original film from 1986. Iron Man writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway have been tagged to write the new Highlander reimagining. The original movie starred Christopher Lambert as an immortal locked in eternal conflict, and it spawned several sequels and even moved into the TV realm for three different series. There’s no doubt that Highlander is a lucrative property, and here’s hoping there’s some life left in it yet–no pun intended.
