15 MINUTES AGO: “His leg has…” Natalie Viscuso speaks out about Henry Cavill’s leg injury and reveals the date he will return to filming Highlander, leaving fans restless with anticipation…👇
Fifteen minutes ago, Natalie Viscuso broke weeks of silence. In a soft but confident voice on her Instagram Live, she finally addressed the injury that halted Highlander production and terrified millions of fans worldwide.
“His leg has healed faster than any doctor predicted,” she began, smiling at the camera while sitting on the sunlit terrace of their London home.
Henry suffered a severe hamstring tear in January during an intense sword-fighting sequence. The incident forced Chad Stahelski to shut down the Scotland set indefinitely.
Rumors immediately exploded: some claimed the injury was career-threatening, others whispered the film might recast the lead. The uncertainty lasted 71 painful days.
Today, Natalie ended the speculation. “The surgeon told us six to nine months. Henry laughed and said he’d be back in twelve weeks.”
She continued, “As of this morning, the medical team cleared him for full load-bearing and explosive movement. The leg is officially stronger than before.”
Fans watching live flooded the chat with crying emojis and all-cap messages. The stream peaked at 1.4 million concurrent viewers.
Natalie then dropped the exact date everyone had been begging for. “Principal photography resumes May 19th. Henry flies to Scotland next week for fight rehearsals.”
She added, “He’s been training in the gym since week eight. The physios keep saying they’ve never seen anyone attack recovery like this.”
A quick clip she shared showed Henry sprinting on an anti-gravity treadmill, sweat flying, grinning like the injury never happened.
“Doctors measured his muscle regeneration at almost double the average rate,” Natalie revealed, shaking her head in proud disbelief.
She explained the secret: hyperbaric oxygen, daily peptide therapy, and four hours of physio every single day without exception.
Henry himself briefly appeared on camera, walking without any limp, lifting his trouser leg to reveal a scar that already looks months old.
“Tell them I’m bored of resting,” he joked, flexing the healed hamstring. The chat exploded again.
Natalie laughed and pushed him gently off-screen. “He’s been counting the days. May 19th cannot come soon enough.”
She also confirmed the production delay will be only ten extra weeks total, far less than the six months originally feared.
Insurance companies, initially panicked, are now reportedly stunned at the speed of recovery and have green-lit immediate resumption.
Chad Stahelski posted a single sword emoji on X minutes after the live ended. Lionsgate stock rose 4% in afternoon trading.
Fans are already booking flights to Scotland hoping to catch a glimpse of Cavill back in the kilt and wielding the katana.
One viral comment summed up the mood: “Henry Cavill treated a torn hamstring like it was a minor inconvenience. Absolute unit.”
Another wrote, “Man literally refused to let an injury delay his destiny to become the ultimate Highlander.”
Natalie ended the stream with a promise: “Next time you see him on set, he’ll be moving faster than ever. There can be only one—and he’s ready.”
As the screen went black, the countdown began. Twenty-four days until Henry Cavill steps back onto the misty Scottish highlands.
The There Can Be Only One chant has already started echoing across social media. The immortal warrior is mortal no more.
May 19th is now circled in red on millions of calendars worldwide. The Quickening is coming—and it’s arriving ahead of schedule.
