Henry Cavill, known for his iconic roles in Man of Steel and Enola Holmes, now faces a setback in his career due to an injury. As the actor gears up for an anticipated adaptation of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, the reboot of Highlander is also underway but may be delayed as a result of his recent physical mishap.
Henry Cavill’s Injury
Henry Cavill has been busy with multiple projects, including an adaptation of the Warhammer 40,000 universe for Amazon and a reboot of the classic film Highlander. Initially announced in May 2021, the reboot is finally moving into preproduction.
However, according to Deadline, Cavill sustained an injury while training for the film, which is expected to push the production schedule back to early next year. This delay is disappointing news for fans eagerly anticipating the reboot.
The Highlander reboot, penned by Michael Finch, will feature an ensemble cast including Russell Crowe, Marisa Abela, Karen Gillan, Djimon Hounsou, Dave Bautista, and Max Zhang. The film serves as a successor to the 1986 original, which starred Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery, depicting battles among immortal warriors across time.
Cavill’s Career Path Ahead
This reboot marks Cavill’s return to the set after a notable 2022, where he appeared in Deadpool and Wolverine, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, and Argylle. In addition to Highlander, Cavill is set to star in upcoming projects such as Voltron, In the Grey, and Enola Holmes 3 for Netflix. It remains to be seen how this injury will affect his filming schedule. As he tries to revive his career following complications with the DC Universe and The Witcher, this setback is certainly an unwelcome twist.
