Masters of the Universe Opens in Theaters

Mattel's He-Man franchise gets a live-action feature, with Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Adam and Jared Leto as Skeletor, directed by Travis Knight.

Travis Knight's Masters of the Universe, the second live-action adaptation after 1987, released in the US on 5 June 2026 via Amazon MGM Studios after a 18 May premiere in Los Angeles^[2]
Nicholas Galitzine plays Prince Adam/He-Man, with Jared Leto as Skeletor, Camila Mendes as Teela, Idris Elba as Man-At-Arms and Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn^[2][3]
Adam, sent to Earth as a boy, is drawn back to Eternia to fight Skeletor at Snake Mountain and Castle Grayskull^[2]
Development began in 2009 at Sony; rights moved to Netflix in 2022 and Amazon MGM Studios in 2024; filming ran January to June 2025 in London^[2]
Reviews were positive (Deadline called it a blast back to the '80s) but it underperformed, earning $114 million worldwide against a $170 million budget, and later did well on Prime Video^[2][3]
