We get a first look at the He-Man Masters of the Universe set, thanks to leaks that tease Jared Leto’s Skeletor and a whole lot more.
What was originally thought to be a Stargate movie is actually the UK set of Amazon’s Masters of the Universe starring Nicholas Galitzine as He-Man.
The leak follows Amazon showing off the first footage at CinemaCon which according to reports lines up, with a He-Man fan on X also confirming the leaks.
Much like what recently happened with the Avengers: Doomsday leaked video, these leaks come about via drone footage from high above. The images captured are pretty blurry and the actors can’t even be recognized. However, that hasn’t stopped the He-Man fans from being able to put together details.
Masters of the Universe leaked details
The scene apparently shows Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Adam being captured by the evil forces of Skeletor.
As pointed out, the scene looks to be taking place on Eternia at Castle Grayskull, as the Castle Grayskull jawbridge looks to be shown.
Prince Adam wearing pink can be seen (just like the cartoon). It also appears as if someone is wielding Skeletor’s Havoc Staff and Evil-Lyn’s magical staff. It’s unclear if Jared Leto is actually in the scene playing Skeletor. Alison Brie is also playing Evil-Lyn.

He-Man fans also think that possibly Beast-Man (or maybe Hafthor Bjornsson as Goat Man?) is a part of the scene, which also looks to feature Skeletal Warriors.

From Earth to Eternia
Previous set pics (see below) have shown Nicholas Galitzine as “Adam” on Earth with the Power Sword seemingly getting busted by the cops for some reason. A synopsis has said that the movie starts out on Earth and then makes its way to Eternia:
10-year-old Prince Adam who crashed to Earth in a spaceship and was separated from his magical Power Sword—the only link to his home on Eternia. After tracking it down almost two decades later, Prince Adam is whisked back across space to defend his home planet against the evil forces of Skeletor. But to defeat such a powerful villain, Prince Adam will first need to uncover the mysteries of his past and become He-Man: the most powerful man in the Universe!
