For months, we’ve been catching glimpses of Nicholas Galitzine’s hunky makeover for the forthcoming He-Man film, Masters of the Universe. But with the teaser trailer (and a full trailer coming tomorrow), we’ve gotten our best look yet — and baby, it’s an eyeful!
Fans knew this was coming, as Galitzine has been sharing workout photos along the way.
And of course, teasing that he hasn’t missed leg day. No, not once.

For the uninitiated, the film follows the story of a young man who discovers he is secretly a prince on an alien planet, and that it is his destiny to recover a magic sword that will transform him into (a loincloth-wearing) He-Man, the protector of his kingdom.
The film also stars Morena Baccarin, Idris Elba, Alison Brie, Kristin Wiig, Camila Mendes, Sasheer Zamata, and Jared Leto.
Masters of the Universe arrives in theaters on June 5. Check out the teaser trailer below.

        Everything queer we loved at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival

        Shudder, A24, Sundance
    
The Sundance Film Festival may have already come and gone, but I’m still ruminating on the queer films I caught at this year’s event.
From queer documentaries and dramas to chilling tales ripped from history and our own internal demons, once again Park City, Utah showed up and showed out on the silver screen.

It's official: Pedro Pascal is set to star in Todd Haynes's upcoming movie, De Noche, which was halted in 2025 amid Joaquin Phoenix's abrupt departure. Pascal will reportedly play a "hard-boiled detective opposite Danny Ramirez as his younger lover" — a role originally meant for Phoenix.
De Noche, which has been described as a "subversive love story," centers the "passionate and unexpected love affair between a cop (Pascal) and a boarding school teacher (Ramirez)." The film is set in Los Angeles, on the brink of war, in the 1930s. As the story goes, Pascal's and Ramirez's characters become targets of corrupt politicians and have to escape to Mexico in order to survive.

        'Jaripeo' teases a hidden world of gay hookups in Mexico, but doesn’t totally satisfy

Jaripeo

        Sundance
    
If there is one truth that unites queer people across the globe and throughout time, it’s that we are here, there, and everywhere. In some places, that existence is out, proud, and in full view; in others, we exist in more discreet and hidden ways. It’s one of these latter examples that Jaripeo, a new documentary from directors Efraín Mojica and Rebecca Zweig, which screened at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival, seeks to reveal.
The film takes place in the Mexican state of Michoacán and takes its namesake from the rural rodeos that serve as annual gatherings and celebrations for people in the region.

        'Rock Springs' is a slow burn that's both haunting and full of heart

Kelly Marie Tran in 'Rock Springs'

        Sundance 
    
If you’ve ever walked into a room, driven through a small town, or simply existed in a space where white cis-het norms were mandatory—and felt the dreaded weight of unwelcome eyes upon you—then the pervasive sense of dread and foreboding that writer-director Vera Miao and cinematographer Heyjin Jun capture in Rock Springs will be eerily and achingly familiar.
The film, which made its debut at the Sundance Film Festival last month, stars out actress Kelly Marie Tran—once again delivering a powerhouse performance—and follows an Asian family: Emily (Tran), her daughter (Aria Kim), and her mother-in-law (Fiona Fu). After the death of Emily’s husband, they move to the small town of Rock Springs, Wyoming.
