Travis Knight, director of Masters of the Universe, spoke to HeyUGuys at the UK Premiere at Cineworld Leicester Square, London — and in a short but memorable exchange, stripped the entire philosophy of this enormous fantasy epic down to its core: a deeply personal act of love. Knight — an animator by trade who thinks as a storyteller — spoke about the emotional intelligence that underpins his visual approach, his childhood devotion to the world of Eternia, and the one rule he believes is non-negotiable for any adaptation of beloved source material: "The threshold issue is — you need to love it."
Interviews for Masters of the Universe at the UK Premiere. The film stars
Nicholas Galitzine, Jared Leto, Camila Mendes, Idris Elba, Alison Brie,
James Purefoy, Morena Baccarin, Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, Charlotte Riley and Kristen Wiig; it was written by Chris Butler and directed by Travis Knight.
Colin Hart and Abigail Shii ask the questions.
Plot: After fifteen years apart, the Sword of Power draws Prince Adam back to Eternia, only to find his once-great kingdom crushed under the iron rule of
the villainous Skeletor. To save his family and restore peace to the realm,
Adam must embrace his destiny as He-Man — the most powerful man in the
universe — and rally his closest allies to reclaim what was lost.
Masters of the Universe will be released in cinemas on 3rd June 2026.
