Variety reports that Fox 2000 has set John Woo ("Paycheck"😉 to direct and produce He-Man, a live-action film based on the characters in Mattel's "Masters of the Universe" line of action figures. Adam Rifkin will adapt the screenplay.

Originally made into an animated series in 1983, the property was also adapted into a live-action film in 1987 called Masters of the Universe, which starred Dolph Lundgren as the hero and Frank Langella as Skeletor.

He-Man began life as Prince Adam, the hybrid of an Earthling and an Eternian. At the age of 18, he was taken to Castle Grayskull, where Adam received super powers. He-Man has a sidekick in the form of a tiger, Battle Cat, and a deadly enemy, Skeletor.

Woo is also attached to direct The Rock in the video game adaptation "Spy-Hunter" for Universal Pictures.

Sooner or later they will make one. Probably later. 😉

Hopefully live action.

John Woo should definately leave this alone- it's not going to work with him at the helm or anyone. I liked the 80's movie with Dolph Lundgren, it had the feel of a good story(apart from the fact that there is no Prince Adam-He-Man transformation). I mean you only have to look at the new cartoon they released to realise that modernising something isn't exactly the best way forward
