We were just wondering earlier this month about whether the new iteration of the long-in-development Masters of the Universe live-action movie would recast the role of He-Man, and now we have a positive answer. Nicholas Galitzine has landed the part.
The previous iteration of the project - which was ultimately scrapped at Netflix - had the Nee brothers (The Lost City) at the helm and Kyle Allen (West Side Story) announced to star in it as Adam/He-Man. With Travis Knight (Bumblebee) and his writing partner Chris Butler (Kubo and the Two Strings) taking over the movie next, the entire thing is being changed... again.
Via Deadline, the announcement came straight from Amazon MGM Studios on May 29. "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," said Julie Rapaport, head of film production and development at Amazon MGM Studios.
