By the Power of Grayskull! Masters of the Universe Is Back — And I Can’t Wait

If you grew up racing home from school to watch He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, this news hits right in the childhood. One of my all-time favourite cartoons is officially getting another reboot, and this time it’s going big.


Amazon MGM Studios is bringing Masters of the Universe back to the big screen, and if the early trailer buzz is anything to go by… I’m already sold.


From the Sword of Power to Castle Grayskull, Eternia is ready to rise again. Watch the epic trailer below.

What Is the New Masters of the Universe Movie?

This upcoming film is a live-action reboot of the iconic 1980s franchise that launched cartoons, comics, toys, and one very memorable 1987 movie.

Amazon’s version aims to balance:

  • Classic He-Man mythology

  • Modern blockbuster storytelling

  • A visually epic fantasy world built for cinema audiences

At its core, the story once again follows Prince Adam, who discovers his destiny as He-Man, the most powerful man in the universe, and must defend Eternia from the evil Skeletor.


Cast & Creative Team

Amazon isn’t messing around with this one.

  • He-Man / Prince Adam: Nicholas Galitzine

  • Director: Travis Knight (Bumblebee, Kubo and the Two Strings)

  • Studio: Amazon MGM Studios


With Travis Knight at the helm, expectations are high for a film that respects the source material while delivering modern action and heart.
