The Masters Of The Universe star explained that he wants his version of He-Man to feel have more "sensitivity" to him compared to the original series.
The upcoming film is a remake of the classic 1987 film that follows the superhero preparing for battle to try and defend his planet from evil.
At the London premiere for the upcoming film, Galitzine praised director, Travis Knight for incorporating 130 episodes into the one film.
At the premiere, he tole the Press Association: "He assembled a team of people who were really very focused on creating fan service for the existing fans, but also making a movie that felt modern, that felt current. When it came to He-Man, we wanted to make a guy who obviously was still musclebound but had a sensitivity to him, had an accessibility to him that maybe we didn’t quite feel in the past."
He added that he felt privilged to take on the role and aimed to make his character accessible and felt "current."
"I really feel like we’ve done that with this movie. So I’m just incredibly proud, and I hope people love watching it as much as I loved making it," Galitzine said.
Riverdale actress, Camilla Mendes plays Adam’s protector, Teela. Speaking to Press Association she explained how privileged she felt to take on the role, she said: "I love her origin story, I feel like that was very inspiring. I think something that I feel like we really stay true to is that Teela is very stubborn and hot-headed and she’s a leader in the filmation cartoon and I feel like that definitely translates in the film as well."
"Also, this idea that she sees the goofiness of Prince Adam and really admires that and also wants a man like He-Man who is strong and courageous. Something she says throughout the series is 'Oh I wish there was a guy who was both of those things’ because she doesn’t know that he is both of those things. I feel like those sensibilities I really absorbed," she continued.
