Brad Pitt To Play "He Man"

dont really care, but I know its alot of people who like that shit on this site...

Brad Pitt is set to star in a remake of 'He-Man'.

The actor is wanted by Legendary Pictures - who made 'Superman Returns' - to play the Master of the Universe in a new movie version of the 80s cartoon series.

A source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "They are very keen on Brad for the role. He will have to bulk up though - he is very fit but not to 'He-Man' proportions."

He-Man - the most powerful man in the universe - is a sword-wielding hero with superhuman powers. The original cartoon series was one of the first TV shows to inspire a range of action figures, made by Mattel.

He-Man and his heroic friends defended the world of Eternia and the secrets of Castle Greyskull from the evil powers of Skeletor.

The original 'He-Man' film hit the big screen in 1987, when Cannon films produced a live-action movie 'Masters of the Universe' starring Swedish actor Dolph Lundgren.

If Brad, 43, turns the role down, '300' actor Gerard Butler, 37, is reportedly ready to step in to play the part.

Cool, cool....

But they'd need to do a major costume re-working. And I thought Brad Pitt was gonna be Steve Rogers....

Meh, there have been many rumors about the movie for the last couple of years, so take it for a grain of salt. It sucks, too, because He-Man's my boy, and would love to see a real, good, and truthful live action picture. Eternia and He-Man have so much potential for a series of movies and comic books that I hate to see it go waisted like it has been lately.

BRAD PITT is Master Of The Universe in most girls’ eyes.

But he could land the title for real by starring as He-Man in the next nostalgic movie remake.

Legendary Pictures — the team behind Superman Returns — are set to give the Eighties cartoon the 2007 treatment.

A movie source said: “They are very keen on Brad for the role. He’ll have to bulk up though — he’s very fit but not to He-Man proportions.”

If Brad doesn’t fancy beefing up, film chiefs have a back-up.

Glasgow-born GERARD BUTLER — star of this year’s epic 300 — is still in the running.

They were just rumours.

"Brad Pitt As He-Man?" Celebrity Truth

Rumors that Brad Pitt is set to star in a re-make of the eighties cult cartoon 'He-Man' have been widely reported following an article in the online edition of the British tabloid The Sun on Tuesday.

According to the story, "Legendary Pictures–the team behind Superman Returns–are set to give the Eighties cartoon the 2007 treatment."

It also claims that producers are, "very keen on Brad for the role. He'll have to bulk up though–he's very fit but not to He-Man proportions."

The Celebrity Truth asked Pitt's publicist Cindy Guagenti about the rumor to which she simply replied, "Completely not true."

All of this is rumor and conjecture at this point in time. Pitt and Butler have yet to even meet with anyone concerning He-Man. Pitt is way to skinny to play He-Man, while Butler, if he looks the way he did in 300, he might make a better He-Man.

Pitt looked twice the size of butler in Troy so i think if we go by physical presence pitt takes this hands down.

😐 Pitt was cut in Troy, not really all that big, though.

😕 He sure as hell was bigger than Butler which was my main point.

Butler was big in 300, Pitt was just cut in Troy.

Not even close.

😆 😆 you are kidding right? no offense to butler but his arms look like twigs to Pitts in troy and then you have chest and shoulders. Any one familiar with body building will tell you Pitt was better proportioned and overall bigger.

🙄 Right.

🙄 🙄 Yep.

Either way, neither of them should be playing He-Man in any way, shape, or form.

🙄 Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i would say he was cut in fight club and had more mass and definition in Troy and yes he was much bigger than Butler in 300. Now if we are comparing fight club Pitt to butler then its a much closer competition.

Whatever, maybe we're using different definitions of "cut", but in my opinion, Pitt in Troy is not that big. Like I said before, though, either way, they should come no where near the character of He-Man.

For those famaliar with bodybuilding (my first passion), they would know that it would take a bodybuilder (and blonde) to truly capture He-Man's proportions. Two come to mind right away---Jay Cutler and Gunter Schlierkamp.

Pitt wasn't big in Troy....now Nathan Jones...the guy Pitt killed in the beginning of the movie...now that was a big bastard....maybe he should play He-man...lol

Lex Luger might make a good He-man....he's blonde and built just right.
