EXCLUSIVE: Sources tell us that the Dune franchise actor is closing in on two Amazon MGM Studios movies: Chad Stahelski’s Highlander which UA is also behind, and Road House 2, which Dave Bautista was also circling.

Bautista will star opposite Henry Cavill in Shahelski’s revival of the 1980s classic swordsman movie. We hear he’s playing the Kurgan, a character made famous by Clancy Brown in the original Sean Connery-Christopher Lambert film.

Bautista joins Road House 2 opposite Jake Gyllenhaal who is coming back as ex-UFC fighter Dalton from a script by Will Beall (Bad Boys: Ride or Die). Road House 2 is produced by Atlas Entertainment’s Charles Roven and Alex Gartner, Gyllenhaal’s Nine Stories Productions with Josh McLaughlin and Ivan Atkinson executive producing. As we first told you, Guy Ritchie is no longer directing, rather Nobody’s lya Naishuller.

UA’s Scott Stuber and Nick Nesbitt are producing Highlander alongside Neal H. Moritz and 87Eleven Entertainment, Stahelski’s production banner. UA took full rights to Highlander, which Lionsgate developed, with potential to also develop a new series. 

The original Highlander, in 1986, followed the climax of an ancient battle between immortal warriors, unfolding through interwoven past and present-day storylines. The movie gained a cult following and generated a universe of movie sequels and a TV series. Russell Mulcahy helmed the original film, which was produced by Peter S. Davis and William N. Panzer. Patrick Wachsberger is also exec producing.

Bautista is repped by WME and Jackoway Austen Tyerman etc.
