Short Answer: Ramirez spin-off
One of the highlights of the original Highlander movie was the flamboyant Ramirez. His story has been told piecemeal throughout the franchise, but it would be fun to see his story told all the way through, in a series of films. It would be great to see some of his own escapades, before his association with MacCleod, especially ones that were only alluded to in the other movies and shows.
The colorful and Zorro-like Ramirez stands in fun contrast with the stoic Highlander and similar characters like The Witcher.
Now that the concept of a "multiverse" is common, we could even use footage from the earlier films, shows, even animations. It may hard to assemble all this given various ownership rights, but done right, The Ramirez Chronicles (or whatever we call it) could be a groundbreaking franchise for its patchwork storytelling technique.
Also, the origins of The Quickening, and the first generation of Immortals, would be something to see.
