The Fourth season of The Legend of Vox Machina opens with the various characters living separate lives a year after their last adventure ended. A new threat, a celebration for one of their own, and a ridiculous fop calling himself Taryon Darrington (Wayne Brady) will begin the process of bringing the group back together once more.

Adam and the Masters of the Universe

  • Title: Masters of the Universe (2026)
  • IMDb: link

The first live-action Masters of the Universe film since 1987, the new film makes notable upgrades in allowing most of the plot to unfold on Eternia (although we do get stuck on Earth for a large section of Act I), throw in more of oddball characters of the franchise (although not as many as you may be expecting), and (perhaps a little too much) discuss who has the power of Grayskull. It’s a more accurate film in honoring the toys and animated series that captured kids’ attention in the 1980s, but is it a better film?

1987 – Masters of the Universe

  • Title: Masters of the Universe (1987)
  • IMDb: link

A disaster so complete it would torpedo the franchise which would wait nearly 40 years for another live-action adaptation, 1987’s Masters of the Universe is a mess of a film that does provide some guilty pleasure vibes in how nearly everyone involved in the enterprise completely misunderstood the assignment. Based on the 80s toy line, and largely ignoring the popular animated series, the film takes He-Man (Dolph Lundgren), Man-At-Arms (Jon Cypher), Teela (Chelsea Field), and Gwildor (Billy Barty) as the first of many substitute characters never seen before, to small town America.

Mortal Kombat (Part) II

  • Title: Mortal Kombat II (2026)
  • IMDb: link

At least this one has a tournament in it. A continuation of 2021’s Mortal Kombat, the characters introduced in that film finally get around to fighting for the fate of Earth. However, all are relegated to supporting status as new characters dominate the story both inside the tournament and beyond. Johnny Cage (Karl Urban), a reluctant washed-up action star needing to put his atrophied martial arts skills to work, and Outworld‘s Princess Kitana (Adeline Rudolph) of the conquered realm of Edenia carry most of the film.
