Written by There is a lot of great news to report on regarding the new “Masters of the Universe” Movie, thanks to the April 2026 Edition of EMPIRE Magazine (out now).
Let’s discuss one is a character’s run in with the evil warrior Goat Man! SPOILER AHEAD!
Played by actor and professional athlete Hafthor Bjornsson who is nicknamed “The Mountain”, the 6′ 9″ force of nature is even more imposing in Goat Man’s red makeup and horns.
So what about this fight? Well, the writer of the article describes a battle between He-Man and Goat Man in Snake Mountain!
“Then there was his fight scene in Skeletor’s snake-mouth throne room, during which he scraps with some of the chief villain’s most brutal goons. Like the six-foot-nine actor Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, aka Game Of Thrones’ the Mountain, painted red and sporting horns as Goat Man. “
Then He-Man actor Nicholas Galitzine is quoted:
“Terrifying. If there’s one person you don’t want to be beheaded by, it’s that guy. (laughs) I definitely had a run-in with that axe.”
We can’t wait to see He-Man and Goat Man go at it!
Empire Magazine’s “Masters Of The Universe” issue is on newsstands now.
We’ll see you next time!
40+ years after a one-off appearance in a Golden book, the very obscure Goat Man is about to get the A-list treatment!
….or just an easy character to kill of…
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that the “Chronicles" toy line will produce him sooner rather than later. In my opinion, he’s a more exciting design than the original.
I don’t know much about Goat Man but he should be called the devil. Scary!
