New masters of the universe movie
A new Masters of the Universe movie! That's exciting news!
As of now, there have been several attempts to revive the franchise, but none have come to fruition. However, in 2020, it was announced that Netflix had acquired the rights to produce a new Masters of the Universe movie, with Aaron Nee and Adam Nee (The Big Sick, Band Aid) set to direct.
The plot is still under wraps, but it's rumored to be a reboot of the franchise, exploring the origins of He-Man and the world of Eternia. The movie is expected to be a live-action/CGI hybrid, with a focus on action, adventure, and humor.
Some notable casting announcements have been made, including:
- Noah Centineo (To All the Boys I've Loved Before, Sierra Burgess is a Loser) as He-Man/Prince Adam.
- Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok, What We Do in the Shadows) as Skeletor, the main villain.
- Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians, A Simple Favor) as Duncan, a human who becomes embroiled in the conflict between He-Man and Skeletor.
The movie is currently in production, with a release date set for 2023. Fans of the franchise are eagerly awaiting the first trailer and more information about the story and characters.
