There were rumours that it might be on the way, and after set photos, leaked promo art, and various possible plot leaks, we finally have our first official look at the upcoming Masters of the Universe reboot (via Toonado.com).
This trailer teaser—the full trailer will be released tomorrow, likely at 10am ET—starts by harkening back to the franchise's 1980s roots, before revealing a handful of moments from the movie.
Those include shots of Nicholas Galitzine as He-Man, his iconic Power Sword, and the Heroic Warriors (Kristen Wiig as Roboto, Idris Elba as Man-At-Arms, Camila Mendes as Teela, along with Prince Adam and the iconic Battle Cat).
We also see some shots of Eternia, but the teaser stops short of revealing Jared Leto's Skeletor. We'd bet on a first look at the villain being saved either for tomorrow's sneak peek or a little further down the line.
Provided this reboot is a success, the plan is likely for Masters of the Universe to spawn sequels, spin-offs, and prequels. Of course, only time will tell how audiences respond to this effort, and whether there's still an appetite for stories featuring He-Man.
It's previously been reported that the movie "leans [heavily] into the comedy," and that it's "very comedic" and "very entertaining." Still, it also has "plenty of heart" and heaps of action, with "sword choreography [that's] fantastic."
As for Leto's Skeletor, he's said to be "great" in the role and is "basically channelling Tim Curry...almost a cross between Frank-N-Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Darkness from Legend. His face is CGI...[and] apparently, it's really good."
Directed by Bumblebee helmer Travis Knight, Masters of the Universe cast will be led by Nicholas Galitzine (The Idea of You) as He-Man and Jared Leto (Morbius) as the evil Skeletor.
Also part of the ensemble are Alison Brie (Promising Young Woman) as Skeletor's lieutenant, Evil-Lyn; Camila Mendes (Riverdale) as He-Man’s trusted companion, Teela; and Idris Elba (Thor: Ragnarok) as Teela's father, Man-at-Arms.
Other notable additions to the cast include Sam C. Wilson (House of the Dragon) as Trap Jaw; Kojo Attah (The Beekeeper) as Tri-Klops; Hafthor Bjornsson (Game of Thrones) as Goat Man; Morena Baccarin (Deadpool & Wolverine) as The Sorceress; Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson (Vikings) as Fisto; and Jon Xue Zhang (Eternals) as Ram-Man.
Masters of the Universe arrives in theaters on June 5, 2026.
