Is Kevin McKidd the New Highlander?
Posted on December 5, 2008
Kevin McKidd, who is best known as Lucius Vorenus from the award-winning HBO series Rome has reportedly been asked to star in the new film reboot of the Highlander franchise. The series will reportedly include a visit to medieval Scotland.
This is just a rumor, but it's certainly an interesting one. We like McKidd -- he was great in Rome and was underserved by the writers in his canceled series Journeyman. The series just got more and more infuriating and there was only so much McKidd could do with the ridiculous plot. For one thing, anyone who time travels should return exactly to the moment they left. The way the writers set it up, he'd beam out in traffic and then the car would crash. It was just unbelievably annoying.
