John Woo's He-Man

John Woo to Direct & Produce He-Man
Source: Variety October 4, 2004

Variety reports that Fox 2000 has set John Woo ("Paycheck") to direct and produce He-Man, a live-action film based on the characters in Mattel's "Masters of the Universe" line of action figures. Adam Rifkin will adapt the screenplay.

Originally made into an animated series in 1983, the property was also adapted into a live-action film in 1987 called Masters of the Universe, which starred Dolph Lundgren as the hero and Frank Langella as Skeletor.

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.

Woo is also attached to direct The Rock in the video game adaptation "Spy-Hunter" for Universal Pictures.

--------------
I seriously hope he is actually committed to this. He's supposed to be connected to so many flicks as of late it ain't funny.

take off the costume.

The only thing I didn't like about the old He-Man is that he was always He-Man right? Plus he was on earth and the green tiger thingy wasn't there. I forgot his name.

No fair! A movie's already been done on He-Man. She-Ra hasn't gotten her chance yet. Give her one!
