This upcoming CG animated series is going to reimagine the classic story of the Guardians of Grayskull while bringing new heroic adventures for them to embark on. The series will introduce the new He-Man, Adam, a relatable protagonist to inspire the next generation of children and teens alike, and the colourful members of his brave but inexperienced crew which include a Master of Technology, a Master of Magic, a Master of the Wild, and a Master of Demolition. Their quest is to save their planet of Eternia and its inhabitants from the tyranny of the ascending conquering villain Skeletor. Both sides, Skeletor’s and He-Man’s, are armed with enchanted power weapons which lays out the foundation for awe-inspiring battles to take place. In the end, only one side will prevail and be able to become Master of the Universe.

The voice cast stars Yuri Lowenthal as He-Man/Adam, David Kaye as Cringer/Battle Cat, Grey Griffin as Evelyn, Antony Del Rio as Duncan/Man-at-Arms, Kimberly Brooks as Teela/Sorceress, Trevor Devall as R'Qazz/Beast Man, Judy Alice Lee as Krass/Ram Ma'am, Roger Craig Smith as Kronis/Trap-Jaw/General Dolos, Fred Tatasciore as King Randor/Baddrah, and Ben Diskin as Skeletor.

With an animation made by House of Cool (Trollhunters) and CGCG (Star Wars: The Clone Wars) the upcoming He-Man and the Masters of The Universe is sure to make for not only an exciting story but also a visually compelling series. If you’re interested in joining the lovable Guardians of Grayskull on their journey to save the universe, the show is going to debut on Netflix on September 16, 2021.
