Netflix's 'She-Ra' Season 2 Won't Introduce He-Man To This Universe Yet
She-Ra and the Princesses of Power has turned out to be a galactic hit for Netflix, earning critical raves and a loyal fan community that has flocked around the ’80s warrior princess reboot. But there may only be room for one Master of the Universe in the animated Netflix series.

Specifically, what’s going on with He-Man’s potential appearance in She-Ra. An appearance that Stevenson immediately discounted. “He-Man is not really on the table for this iteration of She-Ra at all,” Stevenson told the outlet.
My favorite part of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is that while it’s crowded with colorful and interesting characters, it remains about Adora’s (Aimee Carrero) story and her redemption as well as her fascinating dynamic with villain Catra (AJ Michalka). Bringing in He-Man may overshadow Adora’s arc, but if her character gets another season to get her footing, I wouldn’t mind seeing him make an appearance. Hopefully wearing the same bowl cut and unitard he’s become synonymous with.
