According to The Hollywood Reporter Summit is looking to relaunch the Highlander franchise with help from the writers of Iron Man.

Summit acquired the rights to remake the cult classic from Davis/Panzer Prods. Peter Davis, one of the original producers of the 1986 film, also will produce the new film.

Davis said the new “Highlander” will not just be a remake but will incorporate more backstory elements and prequel aspects that will be fleshed out to expand the story line in a way that is inventive yet faithful to the original story.

I hope they have the sense to tap the old Queen soundtrack a bit!
