He-Man movie news

BRAD PITT is Master Of The Universe in most girls’ eyes.

But he could land the title for real by starring as He-Man in the next nostalgic movie remake.

Legendary Pictures — the team behind Superman Returns — are set to give the Eighties cartoon the 2007 treatment.

A movie source said: “They are very keen on Brad for the role. He’ll have to bulk up though — he’s very fit but not to He-Man proportions.”

If Brad doesn’t fancy beefing up, film chiefs have a back-up.

Glasgow-born GERARD BUTLER — star of this year’s epic 300 — is still in the running.

What do you guys have against Brad Pitt? I think he's a good actor, and did very well in one of my favorite movies, Troy. Indeed, if he gets bulkier, he could be pretty good.

gobo 05-08-2007 06:54 PM

If this was news of an animated venture (ala 2K2), I'd be excited. Since it isn't, I'm just kinda' "whatever"... :roll:

Jo Dawn 05-08-2007 06:57 PM

I think Pitt is way overrated. He's not good looking, by ANY means... And I can't fathom how people think that he IS.

Ugh, it'd totally ruin the movie...

gobo 05-08-2007 07:08 PM

Wait... :-? Are you saying that He-Man is supposed to be attractive? I mean, like, to girls?? :o I thought it was entirely for the lil' boys to go "Ooh, awesome! I'm gonna be like him someday".

Thank you Jo Dawn!!!! Brad Pitt as He-Man:o ??? Seriously EEWWWW! That is just so wrong on too many levels!!! Gerard Butler, okay, but not Brad Pitt!!! YUCK!

GK Punk 05-08-2007 07:33 PM

As long as the movie doesn't suck, I'm fine with him as the lead.

Nah, MoTU has tons of female fans as well. Check out he-man.org's message boards and you'll see just how diverse the MoTU Fandom is.

Cure 05-08-2007 07:36 PM

Yo, shouldn't you guys give him a chance? We know nothing of this movie besides that he MIGHT be considered, and everyone is already up in arms about it. I dunno, I just see that a lot on these boards, passing judgment way too prematurely. I'm gonna wait to see this movie before I decide Brad Pitt is terrible for the role.

GK Punk 05-08-2007 07:45 PM

As long as he isn't Prince Adam as well. Adam should be played by someone considerably younger.

Now when it comes to casting Skeletor, I'll be picky as hell.

ZariusTwo 05-08-2007 09:05 PM

LP made a farily well detailed (and underrated) Superman movie, I'll give them a chance here. I loved the original film also, which is also not remotley as bad as people think (then again, I consider the New Adventures of He-Man better than the last new version of the series, so I better watch out for any sniper rifles)

LogicDonny 05-08-2007 09:27 PM

guess all the girls here in this thread are arguing on who's ugly.

i have nothing on brad pitt but he doesn't look heman style.

i want the Sparttttttttta! guy.

ZariusTwo 05-08-2007 09:58 PM

:lol:

Just what we need, a bi-polar He-Man.

GK Punk 05-08-2007 10:00 PM

...Fabulous secrets were revealed to me the day I held aloft my sword and said:

BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL

*LIGHTNING! CRASH EXPLOSION! TRASFORMATION!*

IIIII HAAAVE THE POWERRRRRRRRRR

Cringer became the mighty Battle-Cat, and I became HE-MAN THE MOST POWERFUL MAN IN THE UNIVERSE.

Someone else finish it, I'm too lazy.
We used to call my kitty (The one that died) Cringer. i swear he acted so similar.

...You did'nt get the joke did you?

Jester 05-08-2007 10:19 PM

Maybe Edward Norton could be Prince Adam and Pitt could be He-man....


Sorry I couldn't resist!

There the most detailed out there buddy

Raph's Girl 05-09-2007 08:34 AM

Now when you think of the casting for this movie (which has been trying to get off the ground for years)...well...having Brad Pitt is just as wrong as Al Snow as Man At Arms (seriously...he's in the running to play Duncan). :ohwell: I think at one point Kate Mulgrew was in the running to play the Sorceress...

Now I'll watch a new He-Man movie if:
Frank Langella comes back as Skeletor
Battlecat!
Orko
Robert Duncan McNeil and Courtney Cox cameos to connect at least to the previous movie. :D

I've seen Brad Pitt in many things, which I consider to be 'giving him a chance'. I've disliked him in everything. I've given him plenty of chances.

I love He-Man. I don't want a crappy actor like that playing him, lol.

he-man is also a huge buff guy when I see brad pitt I do not think he-man who ever thought of the idea of using pitt is only out for the star money.

Brad Pitt's publicist denies He-Man rumor.

(Of course, in Hollywood that means nothing.)

It's not that means nothing, it usually means "Yea but shhhh." :P

Raph's Girl 10-30-2007 05:28 PM

Yea yea I know...there hasn't been news about a he-man film in a while.

But This...THIS..O M G.....This is a trailer for a REJECTED CGI He-Man film (or a live action thing...Im not sure...it looks totaly CGI to me)....OMG...it's just... gorgeous!!! I would have LOVED to have seen this in theatre!!! :o

CudleyCowlick 10-30-2007 05:46 PM

That casting choice has me about as excited as when Nic Cage played Ghost Rider. Give me Dolph! The man is the true Punisher AND the true He-Man!!!!

Long live the Lundgren!!!!!!
