We’ve been talking a lot about Masters of The Universe and well, we are here to talk about it again. But hey, we get to talk about Idris Elba and that is always something that we enjoy doing.
The actor is negotiations to play Duncan, also known as Man-at-Arms, in the forthcoming live-action Masters of the Universe. That means Camila Mendes will be playing his daughter.
The Man-at-Arms is the creator of weapons. He’s a mentor to Prince Adam (and if you don’t know, Prince Adam is He-Man). He’s raised his daughter, Teela on his own after her mother fled to protect Castle Greyskull. His life is pretty complicated.
In the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie, Camila Mendes will be starring as Teela, alongside Nicholas Galitzine, who will be playing He-Man, and Alison Brie who will be a villain.
Idris Elba is a busy man, and his next movie is voicing Sonic the Hedgehog in that franchise. We’ve loved him in such movies and televisions shows as Fast and Furious: Hobbs and Shaw, Luther, the Thor franchise and more.
Would we love to see him in this franchise? Absolutely.
Details of the movie are being kept under wraps, but we’re waiting for more information as soon as possible.
Having woken up every Saturday morning to watch the show with my little brother way back in the day, I am looking forward to seeing more about the live action adaptation. Are you looking forward to it?
