Masters of the Universe is a toy franchise that was turned into an 80s animated TV show and a 1987 movie starring Dolph Lundgren as the hero. This updated reboot of Masters of the Universe from director Travis Knight brings the legendary franchise back – hitting theaters June 5th. After being separated for 15 years, the Sword of Power leads Prince Adam back to Eternia where he discovers his home shattered under the fiendish rule of Skeletor. To save his family and his world, Adam must join forces with his closest allies, Teela and Duncan/Man-At-Arms, and embrace his true destiny as He-Man — the most powerful man in the universe.

Ten-year-old Adam Glenn (Nicholas Galitzine) crash-lands on his mother's home planet Earth, separating him from his ancestor's Power Sword of Grayskull. Two decades later, he takes his sword back and bears the mantle of He-Man as he battles for his home planet, Eternia, fighting against the evil forces of Skeletor (Jared Leto) – and will embrace his true destiny.
