Noah Centineo, break-out star of Netflix's To All the Boys trilogy, has pulled out of the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie.
The actor – whose involvement in the project was announced back in 2019 – will no longer play the lead role of He-Man, according to reports in TheWrap.
Based on Mattel's '80s toy line, Masters of the Universe was set to follow Prince Adam after his transformation into He-Man, as he and his allies defend Castle Grayskull from the evil Skeletor.

The reason for Noah's departure from the movie, and Masters of the Universe's overall status, remain a mystery.
While we won't get to see Noah as He-Man, fans of the To All the Boys star can at least look forward to his upcoming Worlds of DC debut in the eagerly-awaited Black Adam.
What to Read Next
Noah's casting was confirmed last year, when DC announced that Black Adam's long-time friend Atom Smasher – aka Albert Rothstein – would be making his cinematic debut.
The character, who previously made a live-action appearance in an episode of The CW's The Flash, is known for his power of super-strength and his ability to shrink and grow at will.
Think Marvel's Ant-Man, if he spent most of his days in the gym.
To All the Boys: Always and Forever is out on Netflix now.
