Titan Comics has announced the upcoming release of Highlander: The Original Screenplay, an all-new graphic novel adaptation of writer Gregory Widen’s original script for the cult classic 1986 action fantasy Highlander.
“I have been a fan of Highlander since what feels like the dawn of time, so it’s a genuine thrill to bring this story back as originally envisaged by the man who created it all, Gregory Widen,” said Jonathan Wilkins, editor of Highlander: The Original Screenplay. “For the first time, readers will be able to experience this epic adventure set across the centuries. It’s been a genuine thrill to work with Gregory to discover the various avenues his story explored before filming began. So get ready to visit the blood-stained highlands of the mid-1500s and the seamy streets of New York of the early 1980s for a spectacular take on an immortal tale!”
Illustrated by Szymon Kudranski, Highlander: The Original Screenplay promises to present “the immortal saga of Connor MacLeod as it was first imagined – long before it became a cult-defining cinematic classic. Spanning centuries of history, epic duels, and shadowed rivalries, Highlander: The Original Screenplay follows Connor’s journey across eras as he faces other immortals in a deadly contest for a mysterious and ultimate prize. Returning to the story’s roots, the graphic novel offers fans a rare chance to experience Widen’s original narrative vision in full, capturing the mythic scale, tragic romance, and operatic violence that made Highlander a cultural touchstone.”
