Masters of the Universe: Bear McCreary Working on "Score of My Dreams"

Well, it would appear a whole lot of you are liking what you're hearing so far. On Monday, Kevin Smith announced that Bear McCreary (The Walking Dead, Battlestar Galactica) had been tapped as the composer of Mattel Television and Netflix's animated sequel series Masters of the Universe: Revelation. But that wasn't all, as the streaming service's social media accounts also shared a look-listen of Smith previewing a sample of McCreary's work. And it wasn't just any sample, as fans were treated to how the transformation scene is starting to sound as Chris Wood's (Supergirl, The Vampire Diaries) Prince Adam transforms into He-Man (you can check it out here). And based on the feedback we've received on our end, it sounds like you approve (and that's not even close to the final product).

Now we're hearing from McCreary, reacting to the preview by throwing a ton of appreciation Kevin and the creative team's way for giving him the opportunity to "write the score of my dreams." In a follow-up tweet, McCreary reminds us that what we heard was just an initial mock-up (damn!) and that the final version "is killer":

A radical return to Eternia, Revelation is a direct sequel series to the classic era of Masters of the Universe. Featuring fan favorites He-Man, Orko, Cringer and Man-At-Arms, the story pits our heroic warriors and guardians of Castle Grayskull against Skeletor, Evil-Lyn, Beastman and the vile legions of Snake Mountain!

But after a ferocious final battle forever fractures Eternia, it's up to Teela to solve the mystery of the missing Sword of Power in a race against time to prevent the end of the Universe! Her journey will uncover the secrets of Grayskull at last. This is the epic He-Man and the Masters of the Universe saga fans have waited 35 yeas to see!
