The film stars Nicholas Galitzine as He-Man/Prince Adam

Masters of the Universe wraps a four-month UK shoot today, 13 June.

The big-screen iteration is from Amazon MGM and Mattel and stars Nicholas Galitzine as He-Man/Prince Adam. Idris Elba, Alison Brie and Camila Mendes co-star.

Travis Knight was in the director’s chair, calling the shots from a screenplay by Chris Butler. Escape Artists produces with Mattel Films for Amazon MGM. Idris Elba, Alison Brie and Camila Mendes co-star.

Amazon MGM’s UK footprint is hefty – the streamer has a residency at the newly-expanded Shepperton Studios, where this week production got underway on The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power S3.

The US giant is also prepping the new iteration Highlander in the UK – more details on that project are available to subscribers on Production Intelligence, where we also reported extensively on the physical production specifics of Masters of the Universe five months ahead of shooting.

Galitzine’s future projects include starring alongside Marisa Abela in The Return of Stanley Atwell, a new feature from Hera Pictures and writer/director Brian Welsh, based on a story by Steven Soderbergh, who will executive produce.
