"Masters of the Universe" Film in Development (Again)

Hemsworth would be good but I always assumed he would never do the role because it might be to similar to Thor.

That's fancasting for you!

I'm not super familiar with He-Man, but it looks like they did a pretty good job with what we can see there.

He-Man is suppose to look like he didn't just take steroids. He took ALL the steroids. This guy looks strong and athletic. LIke a NFL TE as Danja put it. But not He-Man.

This is He-Man as he appeared in the 80s Filmation cartoon. The guy is supposed to be big (Read: "The Most Powerful Man in the Universe").

This is He-Man from the recent Netflix series. He's even bigger than the 80s version.

And, of course, the original action figure:

He-Man is really supposed to be the big muscles type, not athletic.

But, of course, live-action does require compromises. It would have probably required a huge paycheck to get someone like Chris Hemsworth, not to mention difficult to get them to sign on for several movies as Amazon and Mattel should hope for sequels.
And, of course, back in the day Dolph Lundgren was pretty muscular, but since he was also pretty tall, his He-Man had a similar silhouette as this new one.

Their were options. Reacher, Henry Cavill, John Cena.

And for them goes the same as for Hemsworth: They might be too expensive and also might not be willing to head another franchise.

Plus they’re all in their 40s. They clearly want to skew younger (Galitzine is 31 but looks a lot younger).

He-Man in the movie is supposed to be at the beginning of his career. This is supposed to be an origin movie.

Dolph Lundgren is teasing he might have a cameo.

Flashback to King Grayskull?!

If they do that they can also have Tom Paris and Courtney Cox show up as well.
