Masters of the Universe director Travis Knight and stars Nicholas Galitzine (He-Man) and Camila Mendes (Teela) took the stage during Amazon MGM’s CinemaCon presentation on Thursday to unveil some new footage from the live-action reboot.
The teaser, which has been described as action-packed, fun, and just a little "campy," focuses on Prince Adam attempting to evade an attack from Beast Man on Earth, before Teela arrives to transport her childhood friend back to Eternia.
Here's a more detailed breakdown (via Collider).
"We see Prince Adam (Galitzine) in the custody of the police, who have taken his sword. When they run into a traffic jam, all hell breaks loose after the brutal, barbarous Beast Man descends on the parked vehicles. Grabbing his weapon, Adam does his best to slay the creature, but is quickly knocked off his feet. Luckily, Teela (Mendes) is there to save the day and reunite with her long-lost friend.
Additionally, we see the pair take flight and travel back to Eternia where Skeletor (Jared Leto) has completely decimated Eternos, the city that Adam calls home. In need of help, he pleads with those who once knew him to band together, fight Skeletor, and reclaim their city. "
Apparently, the clip also features Leto doing his version of Skeletor's laugh from the classic animated series.
In addition, some pretty cool popcorn buckets and cups were spotted at the event.
According to an updated synopsis, "In MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, Director Travis Knight brings the legendary franchise back to the big screen in this epic live-action adventure. After being separated for 15 years, the Sword of Power leads Prince Adam (Nicholas Galitzine) back to Eternia where he discovers his home shattered under the fiendish rule of Skeletor (Jared Leto). To save his family and his world, Adam must join forces with his closest allies, Teela (Camila Mendes) and Duncan/Man-At-Arms (Idris Elba), and embrace his true destiny as He-Man — the most powerful man in the universe."
