Reader Jessica S. sent us a link to
China News which published a report that allegedly came from China Radio International and which reveals which two actors director John Woo wants for his
MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE movie.
According to the site/radio report, Woo has been speaking with his
FACE/OFF cohort Nicolas Cage about playing the role of Skeletor, the main villain of the
MASTERS universe. Furthermore the report states that Woo has his eye on
SEX IN THE CITY actor Jason Lewis to play the part of He-Man. On the racy cable show Lewis played Jerrod Smith, a male model and much younger boyfriend of Kim Cattrall's character Samantha Jones.
What strikes us as suspicious about this story is the mention that Cage's involvement with the
GHOST RIDER movie may not allow him time to work on
MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE. Correct us if we're wrong (and we're not), but Woo's next film is
SPY HUNTER and it's slated to begin filming next spring. Wouldn't that mean the earliest the director could begin shooting his
MASTERS movie -- at the earliest -- would be after the bulk of work on
SPY HUNTER is complete, so there wouldn't be any conflict of interest for Cage?
