New Highlander set videos tease Henry Cavill’s motorbike stunt
Footage emerging from the London production of Highlander captures Henry Cavill performing a motorcycle sequence. Users circulated a short video labeled “Henry Cavill Filming Highlander on Motorbike.” The clip spread online on Feb 16, 2026.
The day before, users distributed a still image carrying the caption “A Blood-soaked Henry Cavill on Highlander!” A separate upload asked, “Here? Or Here?” The exchange drew onlookers, including one response that read, “I wonder if he’s spotted you yet.”
Director Chad Stahelski has been shooting the reboot for several weeks, with Cavill portraying Connor MacLeod. Set photos depict the performer with blood running down his head while he gets ready to mount a bike. Dave Bautista has also been photographed in material tied to his role as the Kurgan.
Casting announcements confirm Russell Crowe as Ramirez, alongside Marisa Abela and Djimon Hounsou. Stahelski explained, “My selling point was, to [Henry Cavill], look, you’ve got a guy that’s been alive for over 500 years.” He further said, “He’s the last person in the world that wanted to be in this situation” (via The Direct).
The screenplay comes from Michael Finch, with Scott Stuber, Nick Nesbitt, and Neal H. Moritz among the producers. An official description begins, “Centuries after his first death on a Scottish battlefield, immortal warrior Connor MacLeod lives quietly in the modern world.” The text emphasizes the rule that “there can be only one.”
Background notes for the project describe immortals waging war through different eras to obtain the Prize, with decapitation ending their rivals. The 1986 film featured Sean Connery as Ramirez and generated follow-up movies and a television series. Reports also indicate Bautista pursued the villain part in 2015 for a take that listed Cedric Nicolas-Troyan before development shifted to the current production.
