He-Man is coming home.
Masters of the Universe arrives on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD on October 20, with pre-orders live now.
The physical release lands a little over four months after the reboot opened in theaters in June, and about three months after it hit Prime Video.
Masters of the Universe theatrical and streaming performance
The film closed its theatrical run at $64.8 million domestic and $113.8 million worldwide, against a break-even in the $400 million range.
Streaming didn’t save it. Masters of the Universe topped Nielsen’s charts in its first week on Prime Video, then fell out of the overall Top 10 the following week.
The scores tell the same story: a 67% from critics on Rotten Tomatoes, a B CinemaScore, a 6.4 on IMDb, and a 3.8 rating on Prime Video’s own storefront.
The “set for a sequel” claim was debunked back in June, and Amazon MGM has stayed silent since, so the disc release looks like the last stop for this version of He-Man.
What Masters of the Universe Is About
Here is the official synopsis: “Reunited after 15 years, the Sword of Power leads Prince Adam back to Eternia where he discovers his home under the fiendish rule of Skeletor. To save his world, Adam must join forces with his closest allies and embrace his true destiny as He-Man.”
Travis Knight directs from a script by Chris Butler, Aaron and Adam Nee, and David Callaham.
Nicholas Galitzine stars as Prince Adam, aka He-Man, with Jared Leto as Skeletor. The cast also includes Camila Mendes, Alison Brie, James Purefoy, Morena Baccarin, Johannes Haukur Johannesson, Kristen Wiig, and Idris Elba.
