Okay, they’ve cast He-Man. Did you hear who is it? Actor Nicholas Galitzine got the nod in the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie.
The Bottoms actor will play Prince Adam in the superhero movie, confirming in an Instagram post that filming has wrapped.

He wrote, “Well, that’s a wrap on Masters of the Universe. It has been an honour shouldering the responsibility of playing Adam and He Man. It’s been the role of a lifetime and I put everything into it. There’s not much I can show you, but I am so proud of the movie we’ve made. Thanks to our amazing cast.”

The Masters Of The Universe movie is packed with a star-studded cast: Jared Leto is Skeletor, Alison Brie is Evil-Lyn, House of the Dragon’s Sam C. Wilson is Trap Jaw, Game of Thrones’ Hafthor Bjornsson is Goat Man, Riverdale’s Camila Mendes is Teela, Idris Elba is Man-at-Arms, Deadpool & Wolverine’s Morena Baccarin is the Sorceress of Castle Grayskull and Game Of Thrones‘ Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson is Malcolm/Fisto!
BOOM. Huge cast.
Bumblebee‘s Travis Knight is the director, taking over after Amazon MGM acquired the project in early 2024. The movie was originally slated for Netflix, with West Side Story’s Kyle Allen set to play He-Man. But that’s not happening anymore.
Cue Nicholas Galitzine and his chance to be critiqued by He-Man fans worldwide.
