Dolph Lundgren Teases Possible He-Man Cameo in Masters of the Universe Reboot

As the highly anticipated Masters of the Universe reboot prepares to hit the big screen in 2026, fans have been speculating about the potential return of the original live-action He-Man, Dolph Lundgren. In a recent interview, Lundgren himself has not ruled out a surprise appearance in the new film.

Lundgren, who portrayed the iconic character in the 1987 cult classic, has been open about his journey, including his battle with cancer. Now three years cancer-free after a 2015 diagnosis, the actor is in a good place physically and emotionally, crediting his wife for her support during the challenging times.

The new Masters of the Universe reboot, set to release on June 5, 2026, boasts a star-studded cast. Nicholas Galitzine will take on the role of Prince Adam/He-Man, leading a talented ensemble that includes Camila Mendes as Teela, Idris Elba as Man-At-Arms, and Jared Leto as the villainous Skeletor. With Travis Knight at the helm and a script from Chris Butler, the film promises to deliver a grand-scale revival of the beloved Eternia universe.

While Lundgren's response to a potential cameo was cagey, fans are already speculating about the various ways the original He-Man could make a surprise appearance. Whether it's a quick nod, a mentor moment, or a multiverse glitch, any involvement from the iconic actor would undoubtedly delight longtime fans and newcomers alike.
