Why did they cast this guy with his weirdass French accent as the lead role in a movie about Scotsmen? And why is the only Scottish actor a Spaniard-Egyptian?

Because Highlander is based on a french comic.
That's right, highlander is capeshit.
It was the 80s.

isnt capeshit referring specifically to superhero comics?

Nope, it's all comic-based movies, like History of Violence and road to Perdition, redditor.

His accent in the movie is not french.

>blue is the warmest color is capeshit

Well a comic about lesbians is hardly highbrow

It sort of worked though weirdly. Because he lived so long he ended up with a bizarre accent.

The thing is, the word 'capeshit' that /tv/ has made up is specifically for superhero movies. Hence the word cape. Because they wear capes. Do you understand now how the word works?
Ish a kind of magish
