Highlander, le retour

Michael Ironside recalled his experiences on this movie: "Yeah, listen, I hated that script. We all did. Me, Sean, Chris, we all were in it for the money on this one. I mean, it read as if it had been written by a thirteen-year-old boy. But I'd never played a barbarian swordsman before, and this was my first big evil mastermind-type. I figured if I was going to do this stupid movie, I might as well have fun, and go as far over the top as I possibly could. All that eye-rolling and foaming at the mouth was me deciding that if I was going to be in a piece of shit, like that movie, I was going to be the most memorable fucking thing in it, and I think I succeeded."

When Juan Sánchez Villa-Lobos Ramírez was killed in the prison, he had the Samurai sword with him, and Connor MacLeod ran out of the prison with his other sword. In the final fight, MacLeod has the Samurai again.

The look of the Colon Opera House appears due to the strict requirements of Highlander II and does not represent the normal look of the Opera House.

On at least one occasion (06/17/06) another version was shown on TNT. This one differed mostly at the end. Connor takes Katana's head and destroys the shield. We hear Ramirez's voice over as Connor is still standing in the middle of the light ray, with Louise smiling at him. The movie ends right there with Connor smiling back. The end credits feature Heeren Stevens' "Trust" as opposed to Lou Gramm's "One Dream".
