The character posters for Disney’s 2018 holiday feature film THE NUTCRACKER AND THE FOUR REALMS have been released today! These beautiful posters show just how incredible the costuming will be for this movie. The holiday season starts early with the movie coming out on November 2. From the trailer it is visually stunning and expands on the story that we know and love from our holiday traditions. Take a look at the final trailer to see what I mean.
Being a child of the 80’s I grew up watching He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. Toward the end of the He-Man run in 1985 a new hero was introduced in her own show. The new heroine was She-Ra, Princess of Power. She was the long lost twin sister of Prince Adam (He-Man’s Alter ego) and she was orphaned in the world of Etheria. She grew up under the tutelage of Hordax, the evil guy who enslaved the place. While She-Ra was never on the He-Man show, He-Man and his cast of characters were on the She-Ra show, probably to hook in the fans of He-Man as this new show was introduced.
Fast forward to November 2018 (It’ll be here very soon) and we have a whole new She-Ra show, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. Note the plural there. We are going to have She-Ra and her own cast of characters who will be fighting the Evil, Hordak and his minions. The cast looks amazing and I love that it is lead by the wonderful Aimee Carrero. I interviewed her once for her role on Young and Hungry. She was delightful. I know she will do a great job.
What I wonder here is, will this show provide a gateway to a spin-off of a new He-Man and the Masters of the Universe show? I can hope. I also want to know how they will explain the “For the Honor of Grayskull” call out that transforms Adora into She-Ra. Castle Grayskull is on Eternia, not Etheria. How will that be explained? I’ll have to watch and see.
Take a look at the teaser trailer below. Then after that more info about the show and some additional photos.
