Who Should Play He-Man in the New Movie?
Originally posted 04/16/2010 08:00AM
WANTED: The most powerful man in the universe. Should be muscular. Blond hair a plus. Needs to be skilled in the Secrets of Grayskull and immune to evil forces of Skeletor. Long hours, good pay. Some near-nudity required.
That, at least, is how one might imagine the casting call for the role of He-Man in the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie, based on the successful Mattel toy line – launched in 1982 – and already the inspiration for the 1987 feature Masters of the Universe, which starred a muscular, blond and nearly naked Dolph Lundgren as Eternia's greatest warrior and Skeletor's archenemy.
The proposed 2011 version is to be directed by John Stevenson, who co-directed Kung-Fu Panda and whose credits also include the Shrek movies. But still up for grabs: the leading role of He-Man.
This is where you come in. Imagine yourself the casting director, in search of the ultimate action hero. From these four box-office-worthy hunks, whom would you pick to fill He-Man's furry briefs?

POLL: Who Should Play Captain America?

Hear that Captain America? That's the buzz about who will play the patriarch of the Marvel universe on the big screen. The latest rumor is that Chris Evans of Fantastic Four fame will get to wield the patriotic superhero's indestructible shield.
Evans, 28, is set to play the character in up to three Captain America movies plus The Avengers and several other Marvel films, The Hollywood Reporter says, citing unnamed sources.
Actors already floated as top contenders for the part have been John Krasinski, 30, from The Office, 29-year-old G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra star Channing Tatum, Ryan Phillippe, 35, and Mad Men's Jon Hamm, 38.
"I would love to play Captain America," Tatum told Inside Movies last week. "I dig his story." But, he added, he had heard that another "bigger" actor was more likely to be cast.

Chris Evans: Staying Humble

Chris Evans may have plenty of buzz around him with his roles opposite Kim Basinger in the upcoming thriller Cellular (opening Sept. 10) and as one of the titular stars of next year's Fantastic Four, but success hasn't spoiled the Boston native yet. "My Massachusetts buddies don't give a crap" about his career, says the 23-year-old actor. "Hey, dude, I booked a movie," he'll say to them. The response? " 'Sweet. When are you coming home? '" Evans says. "They don't even care. They're very grounded and they've known me since I was 12 and a little geek. So there's no confusion with who I am to them. It's a good dose of reality to go back and hang with those guys." So was it his inner 12-year-old geek that led Evans to take on the role of Johnny Storm in Fantastic Four? "I think that it's every kid's dream to be a superhero," he says. "Who didn't run around with towels tied around their necks and jumping off couches? So any superhero really would've been fine by me, but Johnny Storm is particularly fun because he's a little bit of a hothead. He's a hotshot. He just has a lot of fun and enjoys himself."
