'Masters of the Universe' Star Gives a Huge Update, Complete With First He-Man Photo

Yahoo17-06-2025
Following in the footsteps of the legendary Dolph Lundgren, Nicholas Galitzine will wield the power of Grayskull as the first cinematic version of He-Man of the 21st century. The 2026 version of Masters of the Universe is shrouded in mystery, though, as of Father's Day, 2025, Galitzine himself has dropped a massive update.
"Well, that's a wrap on Masters of the Universe," Galitzine wrote in the caption to an Instagram post on June 15. "It has been an honour shouldering the responsibility of playing Adam and He-Man. It's been the role of a lifetime, and I put everything into it. There's not much I can show you, but I am so proud of the movie we've made. Thanks to our amazing cast and crew for all your hard work."
That caption accompanied an incredible photo of Galitzine as He-Man, the first full photo of him as the character that's been officially revealed.
Although He-Man and the Masters of the Universe became a popular toy line and animated series in 1984, there has not been a live-action version of the fantasy hero since the 1987 film, starring Lundgren. The new version of the movie has a very big cast, including Galitzine as He-Man, Camila Mendes as Teela, Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn, Idris Elba as Man-at-Arms, Morena Baccarin as the Sorceress, and Jared Leto as He-Man's arch nemesis, Skeletor.
The film is directed by Travis Knight, with a script from Chris Butler. It is produced by Mattel, the same toy company that created the original toys, and was responsible for 2023's smash hit film, Barbie.
Will Masters of the Universe be the Barbie of 2026? Who knows. For now, it's clear that Galitzine has the power.'Masters of the Universe' Star Gives a Huge Update, Complete With First He-Man Photo first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 15, 2025

Idris Elba's Favorite Late-Night Snack Is Simple—and Probably Not What You're Expecting

Idris Elba's Favorite Late-Night Snack Is Simple—and Probably Not What You're Expecting originally appeared on Parade. Idris Elba is known for his portrayal of incredibly cool and energetic characters in a slew of Hollywood movies and TV shows. From his roles on The Wire and Luther to his turn in various blockbuster movies, like The Suicide Squad, Fast and Furious and Sonic The Hedgehog, it's clear that he has some serious range. Elba is also a passionate musician and DJ, which gives him even more cool points. Elba keeps us on our toes with his signature swagger and sense of mystery, so when it came to his food preferences, we knew better than to try and guess. Luckily, the internet uncovered his favorite late-night snack, and we were definitely surprised. When it comes to celebrities and their favorite snacks, we've been surprised by how simple most of them are. Tom Cruise is big on popcorn, Dolly Parton hits up Taco Bell, while Martha Stewart loves an onion sandwich as a late-night snack. And for Elba? His favorite midnight bite is a spoonful of honey. Related: What is Idris Elba's Favorite Late-Night Snack? In an interview with GQ, Elba shared that he typically avoids eating after 9 p.m., but if he gets hungry in the middle of the night, he opts for honey, specifically "a teaspoon of high-quality honey." Honey is tasty and has a perfect dose of natural sweetness, but Elba told GQ that the sweetener also serves as a nourishing remedy that keeps him balanced. "[It] usually curbs any hunger pangs, and I'll sleep all through the night when I do that. Then, when I wake up in the morning, my metabolism really kicks in," Elba told the magazine. Why are we not surprised that even Elba's midnight snack has some solid logic and purpose behind it? And Elba isn't the only celebrity who swears by honey. Fellow actors Timothy Olyphant and Keanu Reeves have shared their love for the sweet stuff, too. Olyphant mentioned that he likes to drizzle his ice cream with honey and Reeves told Stephen Colbert that his favorite sandwich combo is crunchy peanut butter and honey. Clearly, honey is an A-list-approved snack strategy.

He said he tries to "avoid eating too much or snacking" but when he feels peckish, he reaches for a banana, "which is great for energy." And occasionally, his childhood nostalgia wins out with a chocolate bar, a treat he allows himself every now and then . Related: So if you're looking for a new late-night snack ritual that actually works—and doesn't require special ingredients, why not try a spoonful of honey before bed?

71-Year-Old Jockey Perry Ouzts Approaching New Record

71-Year-Old Jockey Perry Ouzts Approaching New Record originally appeared on Paulick Report. "Ironman" jockey Perry Ouzts, 71, will start a new record for starts in a Thoroughbred horse race in this Saturday's fifth race at Belterra Park in Cincinnati, Ohio. The veteran jockey will enter the starting gate for a 53,579th time, eclipsing the previous record set by retired California-based rider Russell Baze. At this writing, Ouzts sports a record of 53,570 starts– 7,514 wins – 7,013 seconds – 6,694 thirds, for earnings of $53,055,913. The next active rider is Hall of Famer John Velazquez with 37,363 mounts and 6,703 is also the record holder as the oldest jockey to win a race in North America — a feat he accomplished last summer. Ouzts has spent most of his career riding in Northern Kentucky and Ohio. Though he has never won a graded stakes race, he was the subject of an award-winning 2015 documentary "Ironman Perry Ouzts," produced by the Hennegan ranks fifth all-time in wins, trailing only Russell Baze (12,842 wins), Laffit Pincay Jr. (9,530), William Shoemaker (8,833), and Pat Day (8,803).Ouzts told John Engelhardt that loyalty has been a key factor in his success. He credits the support of trainers W.J. Danner, Larry Holt, Joe Woodard, Bill Connelly, Matt Kordenbrock, Barb Riley and Larry Smith for the many winners they have put him up on. He has also had the same agent, Jamie Fowler, for 38 years. Fowler contracted throat cancer in February of 2023 and has undergone 50 radiation treatments, several surgeries, and 10 months of physical therapy. This week, Fowler was declared cancer-free. According to Ouzts: 'I asked if he could still do the job from home when it was discovered, and with texting, video replays and other on-line features, he hasn't missed a beat.' He has won 35 meet titles at River Downs/Belterra Park, 13 titles at the now defunct, Beulah Park and 2 titles at Turfway Park. He won the last race at River Downs and the first race there under its new name Belterra Park. He was the first jockey to win a stakes race at 70 years old. His richest races won were the $200,000 Cradle Stakes (2007), the $100,000 Queen City Oaks (1988) and the $100,000 Green Carpet Stakes (this season). He won four races on a horse named Oats N' Ouzts. He and his wife, Toni have two sons – Kyle (35) and Tyler (32). This story was originally reported by Paulick Report on Jul 24, 2025, where it first appeared.
