Live action Masters of the Universe the film is currently set up at Amazon MGM Studios and the producers are looking to hire a new director. According to the deadline, Travis Knight is in final negotiations to helm the project. Knight is the talented director who previously brought us films like Kubo and the Two-String AND Hornetthe best film of Transformers film franchise.
The report states that “Knight’s deal has not closed and that other elements of the project are still coming together, but all signs point to Knight being the best choice.” Given that the director has experience working in both animation and live-action, studio executives “have long seen him as one of Masters of the Universe’s top choices, with sources saying Knight was the only director to make a presentation in person. This happened last week and finally sealed the deal for him to receive the offer.
It was also reported that the film’s screenplay was written by Chris Butler from an initial draft written by David Callaham and Aaron and Adam Nee, who were previously attached to direct the film.
It was previously said that the film’s story would focus on “an orphan named Adam who discovers that he is a prince destined to be the savior of a distant land. He must quickly learn his power and the importance of saving his true soul”. home from an evil force.”
It’s unknown what Knight’s vision for the film was, but I’ve loved the films he’s made and think he’s a great choice to direct the film. Him being involved would definitely get me excited about this film because I think he’s one of the few directors who will really do it justice and make a fantastic film.
