What do we know about this He-Man movie?

This new movie He-Man It is part of Mattel’s attempts to capitalize on its most iconic intellectual properties to bring them to the movies. However, its creation seems to be quite a challenge, since different actors and directors have already gone through it without anything coming to fruition. The most recent director to take the reins is Travis Knight, who helmed films like Kubo and Bumblebee.

For now several plot points are being kept secret, but according to its synopsis it will be a sort of origin story for the hero. Here we will see him as an infant who crashed on Earth but years later returns to his place of origin, Eternia, to save it. Do you think it can be successful?
