Netflix released you first trailer for Masters of the Universe: Revelation (you can check it out here) during "Geeked Week," and Kevin Smith has now shared some new details and images via a BTS video and a series of Tweets.
In the video, Smith makes it clear that the new show will serve as a "spiritual" sequel to the classic '80s animated series, but something happens early on to "shift" things into another gear. He also confirms that the "Revelation" of the title refers to Teela finding out that Prince Adam is really He-Man.
There's been a lot of speculation that Teela will actually emerge as the main character of the show, but Smith appeared to shoot down that theory on Twitter. The Clerks director also shared a new look at Tri-Clops (Henry Rollins) and the mysterious Scare Glow (Tony Todd), who was one of the final Mattel action figures ever produced.
Revelation has assembled quite a voice cast to continue the story, with Mark Hamill as Skeletor, Lena Headey as Evil-Lyn, Sarah Michelle Gellar as Teela, Alicia Silverstone as Queen Marlena, Kevin Conroy as Mer-Man, and original Skeletor voice actor Alan Oppenheimer taking on role of Moss Man.
Liam Cunningham as Man-At-Arms, Griffin Newman as Orco, Stephen Root as Cringer, Diedrich Bader as King Randor and Trap Jaw, Tiffany Smith as Andra, Henry Rollins as Tri-Klops, Susan Eisenberg as Sorceress, Jason Mewes as Stinkor, Phil LaMarr as He-Ro, Tony Todd as Scare Glow, Cree Summer as Priestess, Kevin Michael Richardson as Beast Man, and Harley Quinn Smith as Ileena round out the cast.
Masters of the Universe: Revelation will be split into two parts, with the five episodes of Part 1 premiering on Netflix July 23.
