lol yeah

it's not even how you look, don't care if your immortal or not i doubt she's coming out of there with a good state of mental well being, or able to speak perfect English

Somebody implanted a sub-dermal Universal Translator into her to prep her for revival while in the TARDIS.

I also love how someone who finds themselves temporally displaced by centuries can quickly adapt to the modern era and learn how to use computers, cell phones and how to get money to fund living in the present.

The earliest form of Banking came around in 2000 BCE.

Obviously there is quite a difference from the Banks of that era to modern ones, but the fundamental concepts of a Bank did exist back then.

I don't think understanding the fundamental principles of banking would be much help to someone with no money, no sellable items, no ID, no degree or training records and no personal history or references. Plus no modern skillset, though certain ancient skillsets can still be useful.

I'm surprised there's been no casting announcement yet about who will play Rachel... Unless the character isn't being included in this version. And for what it's worth, if down the road they do decide to introduce Duncan, I think Aidan Turner would be a great choice for the role.

I have to admit that I don't know who any of those new folks are.

The original movie had an old friend of Connor who was an African Immortal (I think), they're just expanding on it by having other Immortals from other parts of the world in the show.

My guess.

First look here and they seem to be retaining some influence of the original look:

The top one looks like it's in a church of some sort. They're not supposed to fight on holy ground.

 

[Starkers]

There's no indication anyone's fighting...

 

[Skywalker]

I can't believe this is actually happening. Please be good...

The Quickening literally had a scene in a church. Hell, even the original did.

Yeah, no fighting just nun insulting and priest licking

Best part of the movie really.

That would be an ecumenical matter

Hey, kinda lost focus on this one despite Highlander being one of my favorite movies.

Looks like Cavill has recovered from his injury and they're moving forward. Nice.

Any chance we might still get it in 2026 or have the delays pushed it into 2027?
