He-Man

By the Power of Greyskull this is a horrid idea!

Fox 2000 has selected John Woo to direct and produce "He-Man," a live-action pic based on the characters in Mattel's "Masters of the Universe" line of action figures. Adam Rifkin ("Zoom's Academy") will adapt the screenplay according to Variety .

The characters of this universe are best known in the early 80's synidcated cartoon series which was successful enough to lead to a spin-off entitled "She-Ra" (I kinda preferred her show as well myself). The property previously was done in live action in the 1987 movie "Masters of the Universe" with Dolph Lundgren as He-Man and Frank Langella as Skeletor.
