Actor Max Kraus has been cast Officer T. Black in the new “Masters of the Universe” Movie from Amazon MGM Studios and Mattel Films.

Playing a police officer on a London set that is posing for Oklahoma City, this bit of casting actually slipped under our radar at first… which was during the initial excitement of those on-set images featuring our first look at actor Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Adam (and that glorious power sword.)

While we do not suspect Max Kraus (who also was cast in the upcoming “Red Sonja” movie) will have an extremely substantial role in “Masters of the Universe” as Officer T. Black… how many people can say they arrested the alter ego of He-Man? (other than his partner of course!)
Here is the confirmation from The American Acting Center:

Our very own Max Kraus is in the upcoming “Masters of the Universe”, a major Hollywood movie directed by Travis Knight, set to hit theaters in 2026.
Starring Jared Leto, Nicholas Galitzine, Camila Mendes, and Idris Elba.
Filming for “Masters of the Universe” is currently underway with the movie scheduled to be released in cinemas worldwide on June 5th, 2026.
We’ll see you next time!
Stop reminding me some of this shit takes place on Earth.
Yeah, why do the MOTU live action movies feel like they need to have an act that takes place on Earth? Surely there’s enough material to cover on Eternia and they can bring Earth in sequels if the original movie is successful.
Watch him become this movie’s Lubic and he ends up with an Eternian princess at the end.
@gettinhighlander Speaking of, somebody get James Tolkan a 10 second cameo in this movie next to Dolph!
My home city, nice!
@chrisa My home city is pretending to be your home city.
@elder Would be funny if they’d properly gone for it and had Adam be living in London. Is the world ready for a cockney He-Man?
@owenmorton Oh where would we be if the American War of Independence had a different outcome.
@elder That’s a conversational detour I wasn’t prepared for and perhaps don’t want to get into.
Sorry, mate. I often leap towards the conversational abyss. No, the world is not ready for a cockney He-Man!
The mix of Cockney and American South would be jarring…
“Blimey, ya’ll!"
