The creature design for Carnage is kind of so so. What the movie will really need to save it is the Harrelson/Hardy interaction. It does seem, from the trailer, like that's the focus of the movie, but it'll come down to the execution.
Oh man the animation on this looks incredible! Spoiler for size.
Spoiler!
One of my favourite cartoons/toy lines growing up. Very excited for this reboot. Skeletor voiced by Mark Hamill!!!! Actually quite a few big names in there:

The photos give fans a glimpse at Prince Adam/He-Man (Chris Wood), his nemesis Skeletor (Mark Hamill), Sorceress (Susan Eisenberg), Teela (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Moss Man (Alan Oppenheimer), Beast Man (Kevin Michael Richardson), Orko (Griffin Newman), Andra (Tiffany Smith), Roboto (Justin Long) and Evil-Lyn (Lena Headey).

It seems wrong to have Alan Oppenheimer attached to the project and NOT have him do Skeletor - Hamill certainly has the skills (he's hands down the best Joker IMO), but it's going to be hard to match the OG Skeletor when he's also on the same job.

Watching some interviews with Kevin Smith he talks about how the original cast was made, then he was approached by certain stars and previous He-Man cast members who wanted to part of the project. So they found spots for them.
I believe Oppenheimer was one of those people. So while he is involved in the project, it wasn't like they said Ok cast Oppenheimer as this and not Skeletor. it was more of "hey you were a legend in the previous iteration so lets get you involved because you want to be" which makes sense.

Oppenheimer is 91. He may no longer have the ability to hit the high notes required for Skeletor. If his abilities are diminishing, it's a nice tribute to have him on board in a lesser role.

It's Jjabrams, so it will just be another characters origin story, superimposed upon Batman. Someone that the general public doesn't remember. I'm going with El Dorado!
Quote:
El Dorado was created solely for the Super Friends cartoons to fill the void of an Hispanic superhero. He has never appeared in a DC Comic.
He first appeared as minor character in the Super Friends animated shorts, which aired in 1981 season and later in Super Friends: The Legendary Super Powers Show as a full-time member. El Dorado from a non specified Latino nation was added as one of several attempts to encourage diversity among the characters. Like other ethnic characters added during this period, he was seen as somewhat stereotypical. El Dorado spoke broken English with an accent, sporadically substituting common Spanish words or phrases, such as adding words like "rapido" and replacing nearly every instance of "yes" with "si".[citation needed]
Because he was created primarily to fill the void of a Latin American character on the show, El Dorado's powers were not well-defined and were highly ambiguous. His most frequently used ability was teleportation, which he accomplished by wrapping his cape over his body and vanishing. Anyone or anything he wrapped his cape around could also be teleported with him, and there appeared to be no limit to the distance he could travel. Another of his frequently used powers was the ability to generate illusions from his eyes. He also exhibited some degree of mental powers, including telepathy and possibly extending beyond. In later incarnations, his powers were more well-defined. He had telepathic powers and the ability to create illusions.[citation needed]
He was voiced by Fernando Escandon.
Slightly Batmanize it, teleportation is the disappearing act, mental powers are his strategic ability. Bob's your uncle, a JJ special.

I hope not too much time is spent tripping over "BuT wHeRe WeRe tHeY aLl ThIs tIme??!?" because a) Ultimately, it doesn't matter, and b) There won't be an in-universe explanation that satisfies most fans anyway. Don't focus on the meta, focus on the story and characters...I hope
What was John Cena's big crime...... saying Tawain was the first country to see F9..... Hollywood really needs to stop doing this, but unfortunately I think it's going to get a lot worse.
