Japan to Get Highlander Director’s Cut

The Nikkan Sports newspaper reports that Yoshiaki Kawajiri’s director’s cut of the Highlander: Search for Vengeance anime movie will be released in Japan this summer, including a Japanese langauge dub staring Shun Oguri (Shinichi Kudo in the live action Detective Conan, Rui Hanazawa in the live action Hana Yori Dango). While Highlander: The Search for Vengeance was released in America last year, the film has not yet been released in Japan.

In June 2007, Highlander anime movie producer Galen Walker revealed plans for an eventual American release of a director’s cut of the film.
