Mattel released these cast images to social media to officially announce that filming started today.

Wow, that's quite the melting pot of a cast. Not sure about the guy playing He-Man though.

He looks like this now.

Seen some moron online saying Nicholas Galitzine is too old for the role....

^ Yeah images and casting look pretty decent.

Looks fun, he's hoping they don't give us a pile of crap.

Too old, no. Too short, kinda. But there's limited choices for actors who are 6'6"+, who would fit this role.

^^^This guy gets it.

I'm seeing the casting for this - Idris Elba, Jared Leto - and I think I get it; they are gonna THOR this movie. Imitate that franchise as much as possible.

They are going to need every edge they can get, to get a wide audience for a toy line that sounds like it was created by a pre-schooler.

I suppose it's fitting. He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe is a roundabout ripoff of DC's New Gods series, which was in itself taking the mythos of Marvel's THOR and putting it into a more science fiction setting.

There are similarities with Thor yeah.

The Thor movie franchise being a big hit probably helped get this going.
