October 4, 2004 09:29 EDT
John Woo will direct and produce "He-Man", a live-action pic based on the characters in Mattel's "Masters of the Universe" line of action figures for Fox 2000. Adam Rifkin will adapt the screenplay.
The property was originally exploited as an animated syndicated series in 1983. In 1987, Dolph Lundgren starred as He-Man in Cannon Films' "Masters of the Universe" with Frank Langella as Skeletor.
According to "Masters of the Universe" lore, He-Man began life as Prince Adam, the hybrid of an Earthling and an Eternian. At the age of 18, he was taken to Castle Grayskull, where Adam received super powers.
He-Man has a sidekick in the form of a tiger, Battle Cat, and a deadly enemy, Skeletor. Mattel produced the action figures from 1982-87.
Woo is also attached to direct a vidgame adaptation, "Spy Hunter", for Universal Pictures. He most recently directed "Paycheck" for Paramount.
Toma ya pues eso que despues de ver al cachas del Lundgren vestido de He-man lo volveremos a ver pero quien sera el principe???, como sera la pelicula, yo me emociono porque soy de aquellos que jugaba con estos muñecos y puede resultar algo interesante o una puta bazofia.
