Henry Cavill provided another update on how he’s recovering and training for Highlander, sharing new photos on social media. He also included a quote from the classic video game Planescape: Torment: “Endure. In enduring, grow strong.” – Dak’kon, Planescape: Torment

Training Through the Injury

The photos reveal Henry Cavill is still dedicated to his fitness routine even while he recovers from an ankle injury that caused a delay in the filming of Highlander. He’s pictured doing rehabilitation exercises and weightlifting, showing the same commitment he always displays when getting in shape for physically challenging roles.

This update is similar to previous posts by Cavill, where he quoted William Ernest Henley’s Invictus, emphasizing the importance of staying strong and focused even when things go wrong. Choosing a line from Planescape: Torment further highlights the idea that perseverance builds strength.

Everyone knows Henry is a dedicated gamer, and he’s also working on bringing the live-action Warhammer universe to life at Amazon. Planescape: Torment, which came out in 1999, is considered one of the best role-playing games of all time. It’s celebrated for its thoughtful writing and its exploration of themes like perseverance, who we are, and what it means to be human-topics that seem to resonate with Henry’s personal experiences.

First Look at the Highlander Look

The photos also give fans another glimpse of Cavill’s new hairstyle for his role as Connor MacLeod.

The new Highlander film, directed by Stahelski, will likely capture the same heartfelt themes as the first movie, but will also delve deeper into the history and lore of the Immortals. The cast includes Russell Crowe as Ramirez, Dave Bautista as Kurgan, as well as Marisa Abela, Karen Gillan, Jeremy Irons, Djimon Hounsou, Max Zhang, and WWE star Drew McIntyre.

It’s also heavily borrowing from the popular Adrian Paul series.
