Highlander, the Resource?

[ithildin]

For as much cash as possible, it would seem:

Summit Entertainment is bringing back to the big screen the 1986 sci-fi cult hit Highlander, with Iron Man co-writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway on board to pen the redo, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The Russell Mulcahy-directed original starred Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery and Clancy Brown as immortal beings. Lambert played Scottish swordsman Connor MacLeod, Connery an Egyptian and Clancy a barbarian known as the Kurgan. The movie spawned four sequels and three television series.

Summit acquired the rights to remake the cult classic from Davis/Panzer Productions. Peter Davis, one of the original producers of the 1986 film, will also produce the new version of the film.

*shakes head* can't they just let it GO? The first Highlander was so good, then it was just downhill from there. The second one probably was the worst until the catastrophy known as Highlander the Source. I wonder now what Adrian Paul and Peter Wingfield think of that, they were so excited for it before and at one point didn't Adrian say it would be the best Highlander yet....yeah....right. They need to just let it go. The more they mess with it the worse it gets.
