Kevin Smith announced earlier today that he is bringing the He-Man franchise to Netflix by way of the limited anime series Masters of the Universe: Revelation...the new show “will focus on the unresolved storylines of the classic ’80s era, picking up many of the characters’ journeys where they left off decades ago,” per the official logline...Smith will serve as showrunner and executive producer

“I’m Eternia-ly grateful to Mattel TV and Netflix for entrusting me with not only the secrets of Grayskull, but also their entire Universe,” Smith said in a statement. “In Revelation, we pick up right where the classic era left off to tell an epic tale of what may be the final battle between He-Man and Skeletor! Brought to life with the most metal character designs Powerhouse Animation can contain in the frame, this is the Masters of the Universe story you always wanted to see as a kid!”

Sarah Michelle Gellar says women were afterthoughts in Masters of the Universe, but sequel has 'so much more'

Sarah Michelle Gellar was not a fan of Masters of the Universe growing up...Castle Grayskull seemed cool, but there was nothing for her to relate to in the original '80s cartoon...Masters of the Universe: Revelation, the new sequel series to the original cartoon coming to Netflix this Friday, is different

Headed by Kevin Smith and boasting an all-star voice cast, Revelation picks up directly after the events of the original when a world-shattering event threatens all of Eternia...Mark Hamill voices Skeletor, Chris Wood voices He-Man, and Lena Headey voices Evil-Lyn, but Gellar's Teela takes a prominent role in this next chapter...
