Summit Entertainment is developing a reboot movie of 1986's SF cult hit Highlander, with Iron Man co-writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway on board to pen the reimagining, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The original Highlander starred Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery and Clancy Brown as immortal beings battling among humans, hunting down one another and collecting more power. The film went on to spur several sequels and TV series, as well as games, books and other spinoffs.

Summit acquired the remake rights from Davis/Panzer Productions. Peter Davis, one of the original producers of the 1986 film, also will produce the new film.
