It looks like the New He-Man and the Masters of the Universe series coming to Netflix<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nToday while also resonating with the fans who grew up with the house of coul who worked on the animated feature Ferdinand and CG CG who worked on Star Wars resistance both of whom worked on troll hunters from Netflix and DreamWorks are tasked with bringing this new series to life though.
