Henry Cavill broke his silence after reports that him underwent an injury during pre-production for the new restart of the Highlander.
The steel man and the former Witcher star adopted his official Instagram to give fans an update of the status. We did not know how Cavill was injured during training for the next Highlander RebootBut to judge by his post today, it seems that the injury is located around his left foot and his ankle.
While Cavill rests his leg next to his dog and, of course, a pile of books from Warhammer, how he suffered the injury is not clear. Instead of explaining how the injury arose, the former star-superman used his post as an opportunity to share poetry. More specifically, the poem he published in the legend of his 28.3 million Instagram followers is the invictus of William Ernest Henley.
Cavill will be outside for a while, so don’t expect Highlander updates anytime soon. THR Last week reported that the film led by Chad Stahelski was on the right track to enter the production “in the coming weeks”. This has been postponed, production should now start in early 2026.
There is still a lot to learn about how Highlander will bring cult-class history to the modern public. However, in June, we learned that Russell Crowe should find his co-star Man of Steel for the projectWith Karen Gillan, Dave Bautista, Marisa Abela, Djimon Hounsou and Max Zhang also attached. Stahelski also teased that Highlander could be in the cards.
“I’m going to say it for you first, our story engages a lot of the same characters and things like that,” said John Wick’s director Happy sad confusion In 2023. “But we also brought elements of all television programs, and we are trying to do some prequel, a configuration to collection, so we have room to develop the property.”
