Chad Stahelski, in conversation with Deadline, revealed how there is so much history to Highlander that it is impossible to explore it in just two hours. He says that now with a lengthier medium, he can explore and adapt the world with Henry Cavill in a more nuanced manner.
“I’ve worked on Highlander for years now, for Henry Cavill. Being retroactive is hard. What’s different between Wick and that? With Wick, you weren’t serving seven seasons of TV plus two spinoffs plus five films. If I were to do a remake of Highlander right now, you’d expect a lot of mythology in those first two hours; you couldn’t explore stuff without it. Now, Highlander as a TV show now would be amazing. You’d have time to build it out, see all those flashbacks and the potential of it. It’s trickier when you’re trying to do something with that big of a mythology. But I agree, that would be one to take a really big stab at. Here, we just had the opportunity to really learn as we went on with Wick,” Chad Stahelski said.
