Talk about a fish out of water...**

In the first trailer for the upcoming He-Man movie, *Masters of the Universe*, we see a young Prince Adam of Eternia sent to Earth for protection by his mother, Queen Marlena. All grown up, he's Adam Glenn, working a boring corporate job, making drawings of a sword he once saw. He'd love to find it...he hopes the internet can help.

Once reunited with the Sword of Grayskull, Adam's life course is changed, as he's thrust back into the world he was born into, called back to Eternia, where the people have come under attack by evil Skeletor, who has nefarious plans to take over Eternia and the universe. So Adam joins forces with Teela (Camila Mendes) and her adoptive father, Duncan/Man-At-Arms (Idris Elba), to try to take down the evil forces closing in around them.

Directed by Travis Knight (*Bumblebee*, *Kubo and the Two Strings*) and written by Chris Butler (*ParaNorman*, *Kubo and the Two Strings*), the movie stars *Red, White & Royal Blue*'s Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Adam of Eternia, who turns into He-Man when he channels the powers of the Sword of Grayskull, and Jared Leto as the evil Skeletor.

Based on comic books that first launched 45 years ago and spawned the classic 1980s toy brand, a popular animated series, even a 1987 live-action movie of the same name starring Dolph Lundgren as He-Man and Frank Langella as Skeletor
