He-Man Reboot Gets a Director

MDIAG! was happy it was finally Friday, but we didn’t expect to be THIS happy…

After years of finally washing Dolph Lundgren from our consciousness, news from Variety states the He-Man reboot now has a director:

John Stevenson, one of the directors of Dreamworks’ Kung-Fu Panda, has been tapped to direct the new movie based upon the 1980s Mattel toyline, from a script written by Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li‘s Justin Marks.

Okay, one out of two ain’t bad, although after seeing how well Kung-Fu Panda turned out, we kinda wish this was a CG flick instead of a live-action one. And it’s being produced by Joel Silver as well. Hey, now that Frank Langella is an Oscar nominee for Frost/Nixon, maybe we can get him to return as Skeletor?
