Variety reports that Sony and Mattel have hired Aaron and Adam Nee (aka The Nee Brothers) to direct their Masters of the Universe movie.
Sony Pictures and Mattel have tapped indie filmmakers The Nee Brothers to direct their Masters of the Universe adaptation.
Screenwriter David S. Goyer had been in talks for the top gig at one time, but he ultimately passed on directing Masters of the Universe due to a scheduling conflict.
Of course, the He-Man TV show was merely a means of marketing the Mattel He-Man toy line.
