The Masters of the Universe are getting their gains! A BTS photo shows Nicholas Galitzine and Camila Mendes training for the upcoming live-action reboot.
The live-action Masters of the Universe movie has had a rocky few years. The film initially began development at Netflix, with Black Adam breakout Noah Centineo set to take on the role of Prince Adam. However, following him dropping out of the project, West Side Story star Kyle Allen was tapped to take on the titular role of He-Man.
Sadly, that too fell apart when Netflix scrapped the film, which they had already spent $30 million to develop for their streaming service. The film was then picked up by Amazon MGM, with the role of Prince Adam being recast one final time with Nicholas Galitzine taking on the part. The cast has only grown from there, with Camila Mendes landing the role of Teela, the head of the Royal Guard at the palace of Eternos.

With the project seemingly shaping up to film sometime soon, Nicholas Galitzine and Camila Mendes have begun training for the roles in Masters of the Universe. The two shared their progress on social media, having been training with Game of Thrones alum Hafthor Bjornsson, who will be playing Goat Man in the upcoming film. While not too much is revealed, both stars are rocking new hair dye jobs to reflect their iconic characters.

In the original Masters of the Universe, Teela and Prince Adam were more often than not seen as a couple. It’s unclear if Nicholas Galitzine and Camila Mendes will be romantically involved in this adaptation of He-Man. However, it’s clear that both actors are putting their all into making sure this project is the best that it can be. Let’s just hope it doesn’t get cancelled again!
Masters of the Universe is set to release June 5, 2026. Stay tuned for the latest news on the upcoming film, and subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
