Mattel, leveraging nostalgia and recent success, is attempting to relaunch the Masters of the Universe franchise through a new live-action film in partnership with Amazon MGM. Following a string of animated reboots, the 2024 film aims to rejuvenate interest in He-Man, a character whose cinematic potential was last explored in 1987. Despite mixed fortunes among other toy brands, there is cautious optimism due to previous animated series enjoying commercial and critical success, setting a potentially favorable stage for He-Man's return to the big screen.
Masters of the Universe has long lived in the shadow of nostalgic appeal, yet its transition to live-action requires expertly balancing fan expectations with modern storytelling.
Filming for the new Masters of the Universe movie began in February 2024, which signals Mattel's commitment to reignite He-Man's success since the 1987 film.
