Waiting for Highlander anime
Filed under: Newsstand
I never really got into Highlander. Not the movie, not the television series, and not the Highlander breakfast cereal. So, it seems strange that I'd be spending my time posting about the latest Highlander movie, titled Highlander: The Source, which begins shooting this October with a proposed release of 2006 or early 2007. I'm sure its scores of fans are already salivating at the prospect of seeing Duncan MacLeod continue his head-chopping adventures, but what interested me the most was that the studio also plans to make an anime film based on the series. Now that could be awesome.

Don't hold your breath. There already was an animated Highlander tv series. It aired on cable in the mid-90s.

I'm guessing this will be a one-shot anime film, not an animated series. There's a teaser clip circulating around the Web already. It's supposedly being directed by Yoshaiki Kawajiri (Ninja Scroll, Vampire D Bloodlust).
