The John Wick directors have been busy recently. On the tail of the news that David Leitch would be directing Deadpool 2, it seems the other has got his next genre film lined up too.

It's been revealed by THR that Chad Stahelski will be manning a Highlander reboot. The film has been in constant flux since 2008, but it seems that the plan now is to charge forward. There is currently a search for new writers to help Stahelski craft the story.

Highlander is a weird movie, but it is undeniable that it has a real charm to it. If the remake can tap into both those things, and have the action of John Wick, this could be really neat.
