Plot details are scarce right now, but the She-Ra series can potentially become the start of a live-action franchise set in the Masters of the Universe world that may bring in the other characters. There was a live-action film of the same name in 1987 that starred Dolph Lundgren (Rocky IV, The Expendables & Aquaman), but it’s at a point now where fans deserve a new rendition that will hopefully move forward, unlike Sony’s Masters of the Universe project.

She-Ra is also known as Princess Adora and is from the Masters of the Universe franchise, which also brought fans He-Man and Skeletor. She-Ra is the twin sister of Prince Adam, who is also known as He-Man. The creators initially created her as a way to market to younger women, but her character was never viewed as an equal to He-Man by fans because she was always written as someone hesitant to fight or use violence despite having immense power. The reason for this is because they gave her character a deep level of empathy that enabled her to communicate with animals and use tactical reasoning as well as her intelligence to get out of situations. But in the end, it ended up making her more passive than anything.
