Nov 23, 2023 · Currently, there are six Highlander movies in total, with four spinoff series, and today, we’re going to tell you how to watch them in order. Editor’s Note: This watch order was updated in November 2023 and reflects the most up-to-date state of the franchise.
- Highlander (1986) The original "Highlander" is largely considered the absolute best of the franchise, and for good reason. The film follows the thrillingly tragic story of the immortal wanderer Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert), as we learn all about his past as a Scottish Highlander, his journey to becoming the greatest of the Immortals, and about the Game itself — the centuries-long battle between Immortals where only one will survive and attain "the Prize," a "Quickening" that gives the winner the power of all the Immortals.
- Highlander: III: The Sorcerer/The Final Dimension (1995) No, you didn't read that wrong — the next "Highlander" film you need to watch after the original is 1994's third entry, "Highlander III: The Sorcerer," which was more widely known as "Highlander: The Final Dimension."
- Highlander: The Series (1992-1998) "Highlander: The Series" sparked the initial debate among "Highlander" fans as to whether they preferred Connor MacLeod or his clansman and apprentice Duncan MacLeod (played by Adrian Paul), which feels vaguely similar to the classic "Star Trek" debate over Captains Kirk or Picard.
- Highlander: The Raven (1998-1999) The direct sequel/spin-off to "Highlander: The Series" is a bit less loved than its predecessor. Following Duncan MacLeod's on-again/off-again Immortal girlfriend and thief Amanda Darieux (played once again by Elizabeth Gracen), the series sets her on a path of redemption alongside ex-cop Nick Wolfe (Paul Johansson) who helps her on her quest.
There have been four theatrical Highlander films, one made-for-TV film, two live-action television series, an animated television series, an anime film, a flash animation series, original novels, comic books, and various licensed merchandise.
