Nicholas Galitzine has officially finished filming for Masters of the Universe, and to mark the moment, he gave fans a shadowy glimpse of his transformation into the iconic He-Man.
Taking to Instagram, the Red, White & Royal Blue actor shared a silhouetted image of himself in full He-Man gear, writing, “It’s been the role of a lifetime, and I put everything into it.” Though the costume details remain under wraps, the photo hints at the classic battle attire, loincloth, gauntlets, and the legendary Power Sword in hand.
Galitzine's full-body transformation for He-Man
The actor didn’t just slip into a role; he reshaped himself entirely. In a previous interview, Galitzine shared that he was eating nearly 4,000 calories a day and lifting heavy weights to bulk up for the physically demanding part. Playing both Prince Adam and his alter ego He-Man meant embracing not just the look but also the legacy of a pop culture titan.
“There's not much I can show you,” Galitzine teased, “but I am so proud of the film we’ve made.” His Instagram post thanked the cast and crew, clearly hinting at an intense and collaborative shoot.

The film, directed by Bumblebee filmmaker Travis Knight, brings to life Mattel’s classic toy line and 1980s animated series. The updated script is by Chris Butler, based on earlier drafts by David Callaham and the Nee brothers.
A star-studded cast and a legendary tale returns
Galitzine leads an ensemble that includes Camila Mendes as Teela, Jared Leto as Skeletor, Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn, Idris Elba as Man-at-Arms, Morena Baccarin as The Sorceress, and Hafthor Björnsson as Goat Man, among others.
The story follows a young Prince Adam, who crash-lands on Earth and is separated from his mystical sword. Years later, he returns to Eternia, unlocks his hidden identity, and embraces his destiny as He-Man to stop Skeletor from conquering Castle Grayskull and the universe.
