Jan 5 2006John Glover is Skeletor

glover-skeletor.jpgJohn Glover - the guy who plays Lex Luthor's father on Smallville - has apparently been cast to play the role of Skeletor in the upcoming big budget He-Man movie. As sweet as it is that they're making a He-Man movie, I'm not particularly excited about John Glover playing Skeletor, and I'm even less excited that John Woo is directing. John Woo is good for a particular kind of movie, but I really don't see He-Man being it. Maybe they'll write in some dual pistol fight scenes and flying white doves. That's pretty faithful to He-Man, right?

At least he won't need makeup like Frank Langella did in the first He-Man movie.

I thought that they were getting Schwarzeneggar's wife to play Skeletor? Anyways, I hope they keep the scene from the original where he shoots a fireball at Courtney Cox.
