Highlander: The Search for Vengeance

Introduction

In revenge, patience is a virtue. And after a millennium, Colin MacLeod doesn't care about virtue.

The lone warrior Colin travels through the ages with the wise-cracking ghost Amergan searching for the immortal despot Marcus Octavius, who killed his lover on the Celtic plains centuries ago. On his quest, he discovers New York in ruins, with one dominant monolith fortress towering over all. Colin can save the survivors, but his sword only hungers for the blood of one man. Despite many lifetimes of training, Colin has failed to vanquish Marcus on the great battlefields of history. Can he finish what he started and stop Marcus? Will Colin lead the people to freedom or become consumed by hate? There can be only one.

After four films and two television series spanning a period of 20 years, the legendary Highlander returns for the first time as an animated feature-length epic. Anime director Yoshiaki Kawajiri, whose credits also include Ninja Scroll, Vampire Hunter D and The Animatrix, brings his unique visual bravura to the immortal Highlander franchise, placing the MacLeod katana blade in the hands of a Japanese master.

Animated by the revered Madhouse of Japan (Tokyo Godfathers), the Highlander anime is produced by Peter Davis and William Panzer and written by David Abramowitz. Executive producer is Francis Kao. Thomas K. Gray and Galen Walker of Imagi are also producers of Highlander: The Search for Vengeance.
