Kyle Allen is HE MAN!

Wonder if they'll have him bulk up. This is from a few years ago, so not sure if he looks bigger now.

I read “Kirsty Allen is He Man” and thought: not HER too!!!

For anyone who’s ever wondered what He-Man would look like if he had Down Syndrome.

What about ME?

Damn, he's sexy at R1!

I believe the term is "She Man".

This guy is way too skinny to be HE-MAN.

He's too fat!

He's just right.

There should be a multi-verse angle where (Cisgender) He-Man meets (Transgender) She-Man, (Non-Binary) Xe-Man, and (Polyamorous) We-Man.

Joseph Baena should have tried out for the part.

He would have been perfect as He-Man.

Arnold could have used his connections to help Joseph get the part.

I was seriously crushing on him in West Side story. He's lovely.

He's hot. Just the way I like'm. But he's not exactly He Man now is he. Is Kellan Lutz not available?

WTF? Why would they give this role to such a little twink.

And who wants this?

I thought it was between Henry Cavill and Chris Hemsworth.

What am I, chopped beefsteak?

I guess it's the new slender He-man.

Slenderman! RUN!

He has a case of the tinynip. Not he-nip.

Why was Noah recast?

The title should be "Flea Man and the Masters of the Punyverse".

Nude photo leak.

He Man is NOT a whore!

Well, if they cast ME they wouldn't have to worry about that.

Noah is the REAL He Man!

[quote]Why was Noah recast?

He dropped out but he doesn't really need it. He's up as Atom Smaher in the DC comics, Black Adam with Dwayne Johnson.

Kyle Allen is cute and an excellent dancer but the boy has tiny nip for days and I don't know if I can sit through a movie with him running around shirtless no matter how ripped he is.

Dolph Lundgren was perfectly cast for the shitty 80s live action He-Man. Neither of these guys come even close to the look he should have. Not blonde, not blue eyed and fit but not buff physiques. He should have Chris Hemsworth's look and body but Chris himself is not right for this. Kyle is going to have to hit the gym HARD.

Another superhero movie.

Groundbreaking.

It’s not a superhero movie, dumbass.

Thank god Noah dropped out. It would have been a disaster from him and no one was happy with his casting except teenage girls which isn’t the demographic for this. He was all wrong for He-Man. His coloring was way off. He-Man is blond and light-skinned, not some swarthy Guido.

[Quote] I thought it was between Henry Cavill and Chris Hemsworth.

Cavill is too busy campaigning for Bond.

Current BB stud Nick Walker looks so much like him they should give him a call.

The characters will never be up for the Oscars.

More Nick Shots =

He-Man is what every boy wants to grow up to be.

No one wants to be that actor in OP's post.

This shot below is of a He-Man angled physique =

"The Most Powerful Man In The Universe!"

Does He-Man and Prince Adam have to be played by different people since of the size difference after transformation? Like Mark Ruffalo and the Hulk.

R35 In both the cartoons & comic books they were both the exact same size.

Nick vs Kyle?

No contest!

Nick already has a bunch of international magazine covers under his big belt & is known by 10s of millions around the globe =

That's not Kyle Allen.

Kyle must have put out for some Hollywood producer to get the part.

Because I get NOTHING of He Man from this kid who looks like Xe Twink, and not HE MAN.

Have they cast Fisto or Tung Lashor yet?

Prince Adam and Stratos will be flamingly gay like they were in the original cartoon. Evil Lyn will be a bull dyke. Zodac will be nonbinary as he was neither good or bad. Ram Man will be special needs.

R36 Nick Walker is quite short, not He-Man height.

Kyle Allen is only 5’8”.

How did this thread turn into an one for an unrelated body builder?

One douchebag fan.

One crazy fan. There is no way that bodybuilder would’ve been casted as He-Man or in any movie at all.

It's CAST for God's sake! Cast! Damn you!

NO! Nobody will Cast you!

Now see, what had happened was Kyle had already been done CASTED.

Maybe he needs more steroi I mean protein shakes and ivermectin.

Hot cisgender superhero!

He’s not a superhero.

Maybe this He-Man can be a musical.

So his claim to fame is as a dancer? Like Billy Elliot?

I'm shocked that anyone could possibly think this kid can be He Man.

Is it because he bears a resemblance to Heath Ledger, and they want to make him the next big thing?

I truly don't understand how he got the part.

I could buy him as Prince Adam maybe, but he'd need to be blonde.

And about 80lbs thicker. Is Bridget Fonda available as his trainer?

Think of Dolph Lundgren, then look at Kyle Allen and you can only laugh.

[quote] His coloring was way off. He-Man is blond and light-skinned, not some swarthy Guido.

Everyone knows this!!!!

So He-man is actually a twink with a skinny dick and half-grown dickhead.

Dreamy. /s

Maria Shriver has just been cast as Skeletor.

I believe in this reboot, they'll be called He-Person.

R58 cute but it's actually the case here since this is based on a line of children's toys that led to a children's show that originated the characters.

And frankly, although Megyn Kelly is horrid, she had a point there. If the Santa Claus myth is based on Saint Nicholas, then yes he was a white (olive-skinned Caucasian) male.

Yes!! Thank you, r62!! I'm thrilled that there are reasonable people like us out there. Oh, and don't forget Jesus! He was white too!!

Well, I'm off to think of controversial topics for my podcast to keep me in the news. Keep listening, r62!

Did Ryan Murphy have him when he was on AHS?

He played Aaron Paul's insufferable son in Hulu's THE PATH. He had a brief gay storyline.

He looks like a teen idol. I think He Man should be played by Schwarzenegger or Lundgren type. Someone with a truly absurd body.

It's hard to think of an actor in the right age range who has a muscular enough body to pull off He-Man. Chris Hemsworth maybe, but I doubt he'd want to do it.

I think two different actors should play Adam and He-Man.

As long he doesn't have the dreadful haircut from the 80s action figure, I'm good.

The muscles never made He-Man the Master of the Universe. Him channelling Castle Greyskull's power makes him the most powerful being in the universe. Some people just need an on/off power visual for some reason.

R63 Ah, I was talking historical accuracy, you were making "jokes". Have fun with that.

You're sticking up for the whiteness of an action figure. A doll. Who gives a fuck if he's blond or not. Get a life. You have fun with that.

Hmm, how is THIS gonna work? CGI muscles?

R81 I'm sticking up for accepting things as they are. If you want a black or other color HeMan, why not make a new line of toys, then make a popular children's cartoon based on them, and then thirty years later, a movie starring an actor of color?

It's silly to change things just to fit some flavor of the moment.

And the "historical accuracy" part was referring to Santa Claus, which is based on a real figure. I get that you don't seem to understand nuance though, what with the manic Tucker Carlson-like laughing.

Very late to this obviously. He is a ridiculous choice unless there is some bizarre re-imagining. A guy like this could put on a lot of muscle and might look great (not like that gross bodybuilder) but nothing like the character, but he should be taller, even and they can't fix that although they could make him blond. I actually think casting a Black guy with the right proportions -cliche as this would be at this point- would be better than this guy. But it's not like there aren't some white guys who could do this.
