The amazing casting news keeps on coming! Actor Stephen Adentan has just revealed on Instagram that he will be playing Moss Man in the new “Masters of the Universe” Movie coming from Amazon MGM Studios and Mattel Films!
This is what he shared:
Big News! I’m beyond excited to officially share that I’ve been cast as Moss Man in the upcoming @mastersoftheuniversefilm hitting screens in 2026.
It’s an honor to bring a character like Moss Man to life and be immortalized with action figure from @mattel
Can’t wait for you all to see what we’ve been building ✌🏾
So what character will be announced next? Stratos? Webstor? We can’t wait to find out!
Filming for “Masters of the Universe” is currently underway with the movie scheduled to be released in cinemas worldwide on June 5th, 2026.
And thanks to “Sam” on X for the ‘heads up’!
We’ll see you next time!
OMG this movie is giving me tears of joy! 😭
Goddamn – how are they going to fit all these characters into the movie?
@asterstar
Seriously, this is Marvel comic summer event levels of desperate. No way this many characters can be done justice in one movie.
You don’t need to. It’s like a Transformers movie. Some Autobots and Decepticons are background characters that have moments to shine but aren’t main characters.
I know, but this is obviously a concerted push for hype that’ll leave a lot of people disappointed in the end. Even if all the characters we’re seeing were only in the movie for two minutes each it would still be a mess, it’s not like when the MCU did loads of character building before Avengers.
@sketchyskeletor Maybe MOTU will skip all that buildup over a decade and a dozen movies and go straight for an Avengers style film of epic proportions right out of the gate!
On Earth!
(I can’t get this site to work properly on mobile at all, sorry about all the posts!)
X-Men movies never needed buildup for all of the mutants. A bad guy appears. A good guy appears. Here are their powers. Fight.
Tbh that’s why they’re rarely mentioned in the same thought process/breath as Blade much less Spider-Man.
Did you see Days of Future Past and First Class? X-Men movies are way more popular and memorable than the Blade movies.
Yeah, Days was good but First was almost boring. I’ve completely forgotten everything but the Wolverine cameo. Tbh popularity doesn’t amount to anything if they’re not memorable with that popularity. Look at the cameos in Deadpool 3, those went absolutely nowhere. There’s rarely much chatter about the X-Men movies, they’re too by the numbers or something and got superceded fast. Way too many of them were rubbish too, and it was the same problem we’ve been discussing, far too many characters to do anything worthwhile with. Look at how tacked on Apocalypse’s minions were, even the younger crew in Days. It doesn’t make for good story or longevity.
I wish they would! This movie was in development hell for years precisely because nobody would agree on the budget!
How dare they, this guy’s not even green!
Joking aside, I’m stocked, but I do wonder how all these characters will fit in the movie, and hopefully its sequels. I really hope they’re not going to appear just once in a big battle scene then never be seen again!
Some big characters like Mer-Man and Stratos should be kept for a 2d movie, so they can have more screentime.
Moss Man too??????????????
Epic!
All these casting announcements gives me hope for Batros.
LETS GO!!!! 🔥
Holy moly! Moss Man! This is surpassing the excitement I felt in the lead up to Revelation!
Lmao
Hmmmmmm…. starting to feel overstuffed.
At this point I say just go balls to the wall, especially with Evil Warriors. Cram literally all of them in there somewhere.
Even if theres a sequel, they typically don’t repeat main antagonists so we probably won’t see a 2nd film of Skeletor as the big bad, so let’s just get his whole crew somewhere in the first film.
