Last year, it was reported that director Jon M. Chu has signed on to helm a reboot of the Masters Of The Universe franchise for Sony. Richard Wenk (The Expendables 2) is working on the script. Additionally, Dolph Lundgren (who previously starred as He-Man in the first live action film) shared his interest in making some sort of appearance in the new movie. While promoting his new film, G.I. Joe: Retaliation, Chu was asked if he would be up for a Lundgren cameo in his Masters Of The Universe film. "I don’t know if Dolph Lundgren is around or what he’s doing but, yeah, I think that could be some fun if we could find a way. I hope he still has the loin cloth and the long hair and everything." No casting, production or release date info for Masters Of The Universe have been released yet. The story follows "a young prince who becomes a warrior and sets out to defeat the evil Skeletor and fulfill his destiny as He-Man." Would you like to see Dolph Lundgren appear in the movie?

His writer for MOTU is the guy who did Expendables 2 and he doesn't know what Dolph Lungreon's up to? WTF?!

I remember reading a version of Master of the Universe when it was at WB a lot of the stuff was reimagined but damn it kicked ass, it could have been an awesome mixture of sci-fi/fantasy. Shame that got scrapped who's writing the script for this one.

I think the script I read was written by the dude who also wrote Super Max with Goyer not sure though.

This movie needs to be Lord of the Rings big by the way. And the monster characters needs to be made with combination of practical and CGI effects. Ala Hellboy.

Absolutely loved this movie growin up and had all the action figures, castle grey skull and them all.

If this movie is done right it would be awesome. I agree @hellaing that it could be a huge scifi/fantasy epic and bring he-man back to cartoons,etc much is the same way ninja turtles, n Star Wars clone wars...

No not Randor he should be King Grayskull
In fact the whole movie should be based around why He Man calls out BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL. We need to see preternia and Hiss for th beginning.

Dolph as King Grayskull in a flashback might work. Of course, he said he's not interested in stripping down - so some redesign of the character is needed. King Randor however is an ongoing supporting cast member, which is more than a cameo.

As for Chu's directing abilities, I'm not going to judge him until I see a film that is comparable to the MOTU movie. If G.I. Joe 2 does well, then I'll have faith that MOTU is in good hands.

Hell yeah Dolph should cameo,

I hope GI Joe 2 is at least a serviceable movie, and that Chu can do something cool with MOTU if it goes ahead

Why not... he could be King Grayskull. I don't see that being an issue. Especially if his part is limited.
