The Highlander remake is officially moving from rumor to reality, which means it’s time to revisit the series on one of our earliest explainers. We go deep on the franchise’s core mythology of immortals who can’t die unless they’re beheaded, who are pulled toward the Gathering, and who chase the mysterious Prize even when the canon can’t decide what the Prize really is. If you’ve ever argued about continuity, retcons, or “how does that even work,” you’re in the right place.
