In a January 2025 interview with Deadline, Nicholas Galitzine discussed his preparation. He said,

“No pressure, I just have to embody the strongest man in the universe. There’s been a lot of eating and weightlifting, a lot of stunts. I’m eating about 4,000 calories a day, but the amount of physical work I’m doing, you end up hungry at the end of the day, which is quite surprising. This is the fun part.”

Amazon MGM Studios will release Masters of the Universe on June 5, 2026.
