As a seasoned fan who has grown up with the magical world of Eternia, I must say that the casting for the upcoming live-action adaptation of this iconic series is nothing short of thrilling! Camila Mendes, known for her role as Veronica Lodge on Riverdale, stepping into the boots of a character as dynamic and complex as the Captain of the Royal Guard, is an inspired choice. Her experience in portraying strong, multidimensional characters will surely bring depth to this iconic role.


Camila Mendes made jaws drop as she debuted her bold new hairdo on Sunday.

Actress from Riverdale, aged 30, often seen in chic and stylish outfits on the runway, recently shared on Instagram that she transformed her original brown hair into a bold, fiery red hue.

In her recent update, the celeb acknowledged her hairstylist, Matt Rez (renowned colorist), for the “new” and significant transformation she underwent. She even took selfies showing the end result during a layover at an airport restroom.

The actress wrote in her caption, ‘I’m freshly dyed red-haired, currently delayed with a flight, and I have an empty bathroom all to myself @colorbymattrez.’

As I, a lifestyle enthusiast, embark on this exciting journey, I find myself undergoing a transformative change – a vibrant shift from my natural hair color to a striking ruby red. This metamorphosis coincides with my preparation to embody the fierce warrior goddess, Teela, in the live-action reimagining of the iconic 1987 Masters Of The Universe series.

According to THR, her character serves as the commander of the royal guard and is also the adopted daughter of Man-at-Arms, a renowned inventor of weaponry for the royal family.

In different versions of the cartoon, her persona speculates that Prince Adam might be hiding behind the mask of He-Man, whereas in some alternate interpretations, she is portrayed as his romantic interest instead.

Filming is slated to commence soon, though a start date has yet to be confirmed. 

Nonetheless, it’s set for a release on June 5, 2026. This upcoming production is a joint effort between Sony Pictures and Mattel Films.

In the forthcoming movie, it has been officially confirmed that Nicholas Galitzine will portray both Prince Adam of Eternia and He-Man, with him stepping into these iconic roles.

Actress Alison Brie from the movie “Get Hard” has been scheduled to portray the antagonist, Evil-Lyn, who ranks as Skeletor’s second-in-command in the upcoming production. Although her role has been confirmed since early September, it remains undetermined who will take on the character of Skeletor.

It’s said that Jared Leto might be up for playing the primary villain, as per The Hollywood Reporter.

Famed director, Travis Knight, is set to tackle the upcoming project. Further details regarding the cast and team members haven’t been disclosed yet, but they are anticipated as production gets closer.

At this time, specific details about the movie plot are being withheld, making it uncertain how much it will mirror the original animated show.

Back in 1981, the Masters of the Universe story began when Mattel introduced a series of action figures, each measuring about 5.5 inches tall.

Every action figure was accompanied by a small comic book that narrated the character’s backstory, laying the foundation for children’s literature and even a series in DC Comics.

In the autumn of 1983, two years following the release of the toys, the animated series “He-Man and Masters of the Universe” produced by Filmation made its debut.

The show unfolded on the world of Eternia, primarily focusing on Prince Adam. Transforming into He-Man upon brandishing his Power Sword and uttering, “By the Power of Grayskull…”, he was the main character.

In simpler terms, the main enemy that he often faced was Skeletor, a character who would summon different followers from his fortress called Snake Mountain with the goal of overpowering He-Man and his allies.

The animated series aired 130 episodes that ran over two seasons, before going off the air in 1985.

Over time, it led to the creation of several animated adaptations, comic book series, video games, and numerous other tales.
