Looking forward to seeing Ram Man and Fisto in action.

Hopefully we get the return of Pig-Boy.

Jesus I thought it was Leto as He-Man I was about to swear a lot

 

[Wing Attack Plan R]

This has to be an article from The Onion.

 

[Mockney]

Idris Elba has a terrible agent

 

[SilentWitness]

Jared Leto is a weird cnut.

 

[Igor Drefljak]

Doubt it will be better than masters of the universe

 

[HookedOnAPhelan]

Jared Leto is still a thing?

 

[Ish]

Struggling to see skinny Galitzine as He-Man but will give this a watch nonetheless!

 

[HTG]

Sounds like a complete turd of a movie.

Sounds like a complete turd of a movie.

Why?

 

[Solius]

Zendaya is Meechee

 

[Blood Mage]

It isn't possible to make a good He-Man movie, just like it's not possible to make a good Transformers movie. These are Saturday morning cartoons for kids, nothing more.

The original 80's movie would like a word.

But yeah, a good live-action movie is much more difficult. I have similar doubts about the Voltron movie currently being made.

Chances of a movie being shit is high when Leto is involved

 

[Welsh Wonder]

Why is Jared Leto

Chances of a movie being shit is high when Leto is involved

Ruining 20th century supervillains one franchise at a time.

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

Should have been this genius for skeletor

 

[Redplane]

This is a joke right?

 

[Plant0x84]

What part does Samuel L Jackson play? This is the kinda crappy sounding movie that reeks of him.

 

[Sylar]

I'm sure it will be as good as his joker.
