Highlander sent a message from Henry Cavill, leading into some of CinemaCon’s most-exciting footage of the week.
He’s dirtied on camera. “I have just come straight from set,” he said. “We feel like we are creating something truly special.”
Halfway through production, they sent footage. Stahelski’s fingerprints are all over it, lining up visually with the neon nature of John Wick movies. Behind-the/scenes footage shows fight scenes, Dave Bautista speaking with an accent and wearing a military suit. He’s got a beard and hair, Cavill is speaking with an English accent, and the whole thing is going to brig fantasy into our world as these immortals compete to become the only one.
Bautista is Kurgan. He grew up a massive fan of the original Highlander. He says, “This is a legacy role for me.”
Russell Crowe is seen telling Cavill, “This is your purpose… you are the one.”
Cavill had to learn swords, driving, motorcycles, guns and more for this.
Stahelski says it’s big and loud. Bautista says it’s like nothing we’ve ever seen before.
Everyone says, one after the other, “There can be only one.”
Wow sounds amazing🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
