The eagerly anticipated fantasy action film, Masters of the Universe, is set to hit the big screen in the U.S. on June 5, 2026. The Travis Knight-directed feature, which is based on Mattel’s sword-and-planet-themed media franchise, stars English actor Nicholas Galitzine as the protagonist, Prince Adam/He-Man.

Now, let’s take a look at how much Masters of the Universe would need to earn worldwide to surpass the highest-grossing film starring Idris Elba in a leading or major role at the global box office.
