Highlander III: The Sorcerer (also known as Highlander: The Final Dimension or Highlander: The Final Conflict) is a 1994 British-Canadian-French action-adventure fantasy film and the third installment in the Highlander film series. Set as an alternate sequel to the original film (i.e., it completely ignores and frequently contradicts the events of Highlander II: The Quickening), it is the final Highlander film to focus on Connor MacLeod as the protagonist. In the film, Connor MacLeod is forced to face a new, dangerous enemy, a powerful sorcerer known as Kane who threatens to win the fabled "Prize" in order to gain world domination by eliminating MacLeod. It grossed $36.7 million worldwide.
