So a little over a month ago, Latino Review reported that, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe movie was for all purposes - dead. However, now the fanboy trade, has been told that the movie may now have a director! Guess its not dead after all.

The article says,

“According to my sources, one of my favorite projects got itself a director. Supposedly, Kung Fu Panda director John Stevenson went in to the Silver offices, came in and did this killer take on He-man and the Masters of the Universe and got himself the job!

Apparently, the He-Man movie is not dead after all. I hear Stevenson’s presenation razzle dazzled the execs.”

The article goes on to tell us to expect an official announcement soon. According to IMDB, Stevenson has an animation, art department background on a lot of films and cartoon shows, prior to his directing debut on Kung-Fu Panda. Guess for right now Stevenson is the one who holds “the POWER!!” to the He-Man franchise.
