Masters of the Universe has been renewed for a second season on Netflix with a new subtitle – Revolution. Developed by Kevin Smith, the show is a sequel to the original He-Man and the Masters of the Universe series that aired in first-run syndication from 1983 until 1985.
Mark Hamill has teased his return as the voice of the evil Skeletor for Revolution. Chris Wood voiced heroic He-Man in the first season, aka Revelation, but it hasn’t been announced if he will return for season two yet.
Deadline revealed the plot of the second season of the Netflix animated series:
“Masters of the Universe: Revolution is described as the next epic chapter in the battle for Eternia. It is a standalone story that takes place after the events in Revelation. Masters of the Universe: Revolution is an all-new story that brings the focus to He-Man vs. Skeletor “like you’ve never seen them before,” per Netflix. It’s technology versus magic as He-Man and the heroic warriors face the forces of Skeletor and a deadly threat to the Planet.”
