MADRID, 1 Oct. (CulturaOcio) –
There can only be one left. It is the lapidary phrase that many expect to hear from Henry Cavill in the remake of The Immortalswhose filming by Chad Stahelski (John Wick Saga) will begin in January 2025. And, getting carried away by emotion, there are those who have already imagined the British in an impressive false trailer throughout his past lives as Connor McLeod, and have conceived Dave Bautista (Dune) in the role of his brutal, formidable and ferocious antagonist: Kurgan.
Last July, Stahelski, who conquered viewers by taking action scenes to a new level in the exciting John Wick saga starring Keanu Reeves, revealed to Collider that would begin filming The Immortals in Scotland at the beginning of January 2025. The film will be the first in the franchise to see the light after The Origin, a film that Brett Leonard (Virtuosity) directed in 2007 and which was a complete fiasco among the public and critics.
However, Stahelski also assured that no one would feel disappointed watching the Briton skillfully handle the sword in the film’s striking sequences. After all, in addition to playing on the big screen Superman under the direction of Zack Snyder, already a brutal variant of Logan in Deadpool and Wolverinealso embodied the warrior witch Geralt de Rivia During the first three seasons of The Witcher and Netflix.
Taking these expectations as a source of inspiration, KH Studio has released a brutal fake trailer for this new adaptation of Los Inmortales. The images start showing Cavill como Connor McLeodwhose face was given by Christopher Lambert in Russell Mulcahy’s film in 1986, and his different lives as an immortal over the years.
But McLeod is not the only one of his species walking in the world. The sequences also show Bautista as the huge, infamous and cruel Kurganwho wants to chop off Connor’s head at all costs to absorb his powers and thus strengthen his own.
And, according to the rules that govern duels between immortals, in the end there can only be one left. Given what Kurgan’s presence implies, Connor meets with his adversary in an old church, a sacred place for his people, which implies that they cannot confront each other. This is a scene in which, in addition, it sounds Princess of the Universe, song that Freddie Mercury’s legendary group, Queen, composed for the soundtrack of the original film.
However, nothing, not even the immortals’ own rules, seems to stop Kurgan from taking McLeod’s head off. And before they both have their fateful death match, The video ends showing Christopher Lambert’s Connor McLeod uttering the phrase “there can only be one left” in the Mulcahy tape.
In it, Lambert played an immortal named Connor MacLeod. Together with his mentor, Juan Ramírez Sánchez Villalobosembodied by Sean Connerythey had to face the diabolical and perverse Kurgan, whose face was given by Clancy Brown. However, everything indicates that Stahelski and Cavill’s reboot It will not be an adaptation of said storybut a new approach to this universe that started almost 40 years ago.
