Set photos from the upcoming live-action adaptation of Masters of the Universe reveal Nicholas Galitzine in his role as Prince Adam, also known as He-Man. The film, directed by Travis Knight, marks a significant revival of the franchise that has seen numerous attempts at adaptation since the original 1987 film.
Production is currently underway, with images surfacing on social media showcasing Galitzine’s portrayal of the iconic character. His updated look features the familiar pink attire associated with Prince Adam, adding a modern twist to the character.
Notably, these set photos suggest a contemporary setting, with Galitzine’s character appearing to interact with modern police officers while wielding his Power Sword. This hints at a plot that may start on Earth before transitioning to the mystical realm of Eternia.
The film has faced its share of challenges, including a prior cancellation by Netflix, but has since found new life at Amazon. Galitzine leads a formidable cast that includes Camila Mendes as Teela, Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn, Jared Leto as Skeletor, and Idris Elba as Duncan/Man-at-Arms.
Scheduled for release on June 5, 2026, Masters of the Universe aims to capture the essence of the beloved franchise while introducing it to a new generation of fans.
