Since putting Jacob Fatu over in their Unsanctioned Street Fight at WrestleMania 42, former WWE champion Drew McIntyre has been busy making sure his Hollywood dreams don\u2019t end up broken.<\/p>\n
That pursuit started with a small role in fellow wrestler-turned-actor Dave Bautista\u2019s 2024 action comedy The Killer\u2019s Game. McIntyre\u2019s post-WrestleMania gig was his highest profile one yet; we\u2019ll see him as the brother of Henry Cavill\u2019s lead character in Amazon MGM\u2019s Highlander reboot from John Wick director Chad Stahelski.<\/p>\n
Russell Crowe is also in the new Highlander, and our Big Scot must have made an impression on the Academy Award winner. Crowe \u2014 who has passed through his \u201cMichael Caine in Jaws 4*\u201d phase at this point and is approaching his \u201cOrson Welles in Transformers: The Movie**\u201d era now \u2014 is already at work on his next movie The Last Druid, and per Deadline<\/a> McIntyre just joined that cast, too!<\/p>\n Here\u2019s their plot description of Drew\u2019s next project:<\/p>\n \u2026 The movie will tell the story of a Roman Emperor who discovers a secluded Druid stronghold in the mountains of Caledonia. A peaceful Celtic elder (Crowe) must take up arms to protect his family and people from annihilation.<\/p>\n Deadline didn\u2019t bring any details about McIntyre\u2019s part, or how big it is. He joins a cast that includes Crowe\u2019s son Tennyson, Game of Thrones\u2019 Rose Leslie, Stacy Clausen, Pablo Derqui, Andreas Pietschmann, and Daniel Zovatto. Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin director William Eubank is at the helm of this one, which is currently shooting in Spain.<\/p>\n
