Fans of the Netflix animated series "Masters of the Universe: Revelation & Revolution" have been chomping at the bit for an update regarding a third season. Excited over a pre-credit stinger in "Masters of the Universe: Revolution" featuring the character Despara who is not only known as the Force Captain of the Evil Horde but also the alter ego of Adora, fans have been hoping a third installment of the trilogy would be greenlit and She-Ra would finally join the story. (Masters of the Universe: Rebellion? Masters of the Universe: Redemption?) But while Mattel owns the rights to Despara, the…
We have the Power! 
Can't Dreamworks do it for the fans? He-Man and She-Ra are siblings and it makes me sad inside that we may never see brother and sister together again. EVER!! 😿
Come on. One more. Give us one more. Then I swear I can die happy and won't ask for anything MOTU again. Please please please.
The tease is a lie. She-ra never needed to be in the stinger. And why set up a season you know very well may never happen because you don't have the rights to the central character? I'm gobsmacked. So if they can't get Adora/Despora/She-ra, then we just don't get a season 3? This didn't have to happen this way.

If the unimaginable happens and it ends with Revolution I agree. Teasing She-Ra without knowing they could use her is kind of cruel the more I think about it. Teasing Lynn as a cosmic enforcer would have been just fine. It is exciting but there would be no need to see it continued in any meaningful way.
All right, I sincerely feel for the She-Ra fans, I really do, but if an alternative can be found, I'll still be happy. There are many interesting ways this mysterious character (Despara) could be developed, endless possibilities...
Is DreamWorks even doing anything with She-Ra? Or is this a Sony/ Spider-Man vs Marvel type situation?

The creative part of me me would like to see them try and put together a new origin for Despera and separate her from Adora entirely, so they can push ahead with this third volume and worry about it another time. There's far more important things in MOTU to adapt and cover for this than frickin' Adora. You got five years of a pretty popular reboot with her, I think it's time we move on.
@zarius If they had not shown us baby Adora being kidnapped from the palace I would agree with you but that tiger is already loose from its cage.

Ugh.
Can't Mattel just create a new story from scratch where He-Man discovers he has another long lost sister who isn't Adora/She-Ra and then make damn sure they own and keep the rights to that character? What an unforgivable blunder on their part
@durendal I think your feelings come from a good place but I don't think I would be happy with that. She-Ra is an icon. You can't replace an icon with a cheap copy.

Amazon is writing She-Ra a new show. https://foreternia.com/2024/10/she-ra-lives-amazon-mgm-live-action-she-ra-series-taps-new-writer-heidi-schreck
Whose the brick head that hold apart what should be together? Can we sent an army of kids to egg everthing they have as belated Halloween trick (unless they offer the only treat we care about)?
I think one could easily do Despara. At the end of 5 episodes, you could even hint at her being Adam's sister without saying the words "Adora" or "She-Ra". I'd like to see 5 more episodes to wrap up the Adam-Teela love story even if they need to drop the last minute teaser. There are other directions they could go.
If there was any truth to Mattel screwing DreamWorks over, then my bet is no? I believed using Despara and avoiding princess Adora was steps to get a loophole, apparently the lawyers did not agree? Well this could be the end then...Can't Dreamworks do it for the fans? He-Man and She-Ra are siblings and it makes me sad inside that we may never see brother and sister together again. EVER!! 😿
Conspiracy theory answer would be "we make it end on a legal cliffhanger to get a excuse" that would be really sad if the show flopped that hard... 🙁
Yes they are actually, there is talks of a She-Ra movie and a live action show has once again been dragged up from the grave.Is DreamWorks even doing anything with She-Ra? Or is this a Sony/ Spider-Man vs Marvel type situation?
Midnights Edge made a nice documentary about the rise and fall of the franchise, Mattels greed is the short answer.

@catra I know, but thats back then. There is obviously some or more naysayer blocking it these days for law excuse reasons; that make everyone involved look worse with each passing year; I as a fan really do not care the slightest about: Egg'em till they think they are meant to be drank at an x-mas party! And then some more just to be sure they know they done bad. 😛
Seriously, why didn't they discuss Adora/She-Ra with Dreamworks/Matel BEFORE they did that cliffhanger in Revolution?! If we don't get a season 3 now because of this and I'm left forever wondering what could have happened, I'm sending the producers my therapy bills!
Apparently they are on wait to decide how to end it? If they can or cannot use She-Ra is the big wait...They still haven't started working on the next season?
Yep that about sums it up.Seriously, why didn't they discuss Adora/She-Ra with Dreamworks/Matel BEFORE they did that cliffhanger in Revolution?! If we don't get a season 3 now because of this and I'm left forever wondering what could have happened, I'm sending the producers my therapy bills!

There is no "loophole." Despara is wholly owned by Mattel. No exclusive rights were infringed including her in Revolution.

Midnight's Edge is trash.
