Screenwriters hired for He-Man: Masters of the Universe!

The exclamation mark is on purpose! Heatvision is reporting that the men behind the new Predators script, Mike Finch and Alex Litvak, have been brought on to write Masters of the Universe for Columbia. Back in September of '09 we told you about Columbia buying up the rights to the movie; and not much has been reported about the project since. So this is very exciting for me because I grew up watching He-Man the animated series, played with the toys and was about the only kid on the block that loved the 1987 film starring Dolph Lundgren.

Like the picture above? I've told you guys about the website before, but check it out; deviantart.com/... the artist is Greg Semkow.

UPDATE: Hahaha, I swear this wasn't planned. After I wrote the post, I went looking through some old photos my dad has been scanning and found this marvel... HAHAHA, I SWEAR THIS WASN'T PLANNED. 

That's me dressed as He-Man for Halloween and in case kids couldn't tell, the makers went ahead and wrote the name on the chest. LOL.

Columbia buys the rights to He-Man: Masters of the Universe

Maybe there's a chance of He-Man's return after all. We told you that Warner Brother's let their rights to a He-Man movie expire. Naturally another studio was going to pick up the rights, but no one expected it to be this quick. Columbia Pictures has purchased the rights to the project, giving He-Man another chance to be made.

So many rumors have been released, and nothing came true. Remember the Brad Pitt casting rumor? That was cool. I'm going to keep a close eye on this one. I want to see this film made, and made right. There's nothing worse than a Hollywood director ruining your childhood memories of a toy brand and/or TV series.... ahem Michael Bay... ahem, Revenge of the SUCK, ahem. Sorry, I don't know what got over me.
