Amazon MGM’s new feature adaptation of Masters Of The Universe will be lead by Nicholas Galitzine as He-Man.
The film, which has been at various stages of development at different studios for many years, will be directed by Travis Knight (Bumblebee).
Galitzine is a favourite at Amazon, having starred in the studio’s Red, White, & Royal Blue and The Idea Of You.
We’re thrilled to bring the beloved Masters of the Universe to life and couldn’t be more excited to announce the immensely talented Nicholas Galitzine as our He-Man. Joining forces with director Travis Knight, Mattel, and Escape Artists, this reintroduction of the character and his universe will be an epic film that will delight audiences from here to Eternia.
