Masters of the Universe also stars Idris Elba as Man-At-Arms, Kristen Wiig as the voice of Roboto, Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn, Morena Baccarin as Sorceress and Charlotte Riley as Queen Marlena.

The franchise originally made its debut in the 80s, as an action-figure line from Mattel. Later spawning comic books, He-Man was brought to life through animation in the iconic series He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.

It’s not the first time that Masters of the Universe has been brought to the big screen. An 80s adaption was a complete flop.

The 1987 film stared Dolph Lundgren as He-Man, and also featured a young Courtney Cox who would go on to find global fame as Monica in Friends. The film also featured Star Trek actor Robert Duncan McNeill, years before he became a crew members of Star Trek Voyager.

Masters of the Universe premieres in the USA this June.
