Summary
July 22 is the Prime Video debut date for “Masters of the Universe,” which is moving to streaming about six weeks after its June 5 theatrical release.
The shift follows a weak box-office run: the film grossed $113 million worldwide, including a $29.3 million North American opening weekend, against a production budget of about $200 million.
Amazon MGM acquired the project’s rights in 2024 after it circulated among Netflix, Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures.
The Mattel-based film is the franchise’s second live-action adaptation since the 1987 version, with Nicholas Galitzine starring as He-Man opposite Jared Leto’s Skeletor.
