Henry Cavill is excited to star in the upcoming Highlander reboot as he considers it "an opportunity like no other".
It was recently reported by Deadline that the Man of Steel actor was circling the lead role in the remake of the time-travelling fantasy story, which is set to be directed by John Wick filmmaker Chad Stahelski.
And Cavill confirmed in the news in a lengthy Instagram post in which he couldn't help but share his excitement about the project.
"Very exciting news today! I've been a fan of Highlander since I was (a) lad. From the movies in all of their 80s, Queen slathered glory to the TV show with an actor who looked remarkably like one of my brothers," he wrote alongside a screengrab of Deadline's article. "Being not shy with swords, and having a director as talented as Chad Stahelski at the helm, this is an opportunity like no other. Deep diving into franchise storytelling with all the tools at our disposal, is going to make this an adventure I (and hopefully all of you) shall never forget."
