Russell Crowe is joining the cast of the upcoming Highlander remake, where he will star alongside Henry Cavill. Crowe is set to play the role of Juan Sánchez-Villalobos Ramírez, the wise and experienced immortal who mentors the protagonist, Connor MacLeod (played by Cavill).

Key points from the article:

  • Crowe's Role: He takes on the mentor character famously portrayed by Sean Connery in the original 1986 film.
  • Director: The remake is being directed by Chad Stahelski, known for his work on the John Wick franchise.
  • Vision for the Film: Stahelski intends to expand on the original's mythology rather than just creating a direct remake, with hopes of building a larger universe.
  • Premise: The story revolves around immortals who hunt and fight each other throughout centuries, following the rule: "There can be only one." The last one standing claims "The Prize."
