Chad Stahlehski plans to stay committed to the original &#039;Highlander&#039; for his remake by making yet another interesting update.

Henry Cavill Starring &#8216;Highlander Reboot&#8217; Sparks Excitement With Possible Inclusion of Queen’s Unreleased Song

For Henry Cavill [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/], this year has
been decked up with high-impact projects. As he turns the pages of various
genres, his return staged for Highlander Reboot has been peaking fan
anticipation. Previously, Chad Stahelski had expressed his intentions to stay
loyal to the original Highlander. As Cavill is readying himself to get in the
skin of Conor MacLeod, the director is traveling the extra mile to showcase his
loyalty.

The original Highlander has set its emblem on Queen’s songs. However, an
interesting update suggests that the reboot could feature an unreleased song of
the icon, which was also there in the original.


HIGHLANDER REBOOT COULD FEATURE AN UNRELEASED QUEEN ANTHEM 

When it comes to loyalty, Chad Stahelski is the one for details. The original
Highlander featured several songs from Queen’s 1986 album, ‘A Kind of Magic’.
Queen’s contribution took a credible space in the 1986 cinema. Adhering to his
commitment, Stahelski plans to bring the song, ‘Theme from New York, New York’,
for the revamp project. Reports also suggest that the John Wick director will
keep the original soundtrack.



In the 1986 original, the unreleased song was featured briefly but was never
officially released. Originally composed by John Kander and written by Fred Ebb,
the song was used in a Martin Scorsese film. The song was performed by Liza
Minnelli and is supposed to take official release once it is used for the
reboot. The filming of this project is reported to begin next year.

While this update should be thrilling for the fans, there remains another update
that did not go well with them. 


HIGHLANDER REBOOT COULD BORROW TV ELEMENTS FROM ITS FRANCHISE

Although Chad Stahelski’s faithfulness to the original

is commendable, the potential of achieving the same still raises eyebrows.
Especially since the announcement of retrieving elements from its franchise, as
had been said by the director in the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast. Over the
years, the Highlander franchise has taken shape into TV series, books, and even
video games.



The initial plan to remain true to the original was motivational. But his plans
to pick up things from the franchise gears negative fan sentiments owing to the
fear of disrupting the flow of the original. But Stahelski’s commitment to
immortalize the classic has already raked up expectations. Hence, whether the
remake retains immortality or not can only be deciphered once it is released.
