Which Masters of the Universe comic characters are not in the 2026 movie?

She-Ra / Princess Adora — one of the biggest comic-book characters connected to Eternia, but not part of the announced movie lineup.

Hordak — a major villain in comic lore and the leader of the Evil Horde, is still missing from the film.

Shadow Weaver — central to many She-Ra and MOTU comic storylines, but unconfirmed for the reboot.

King Hiss — the snake-bodied ruler of the Snake Men has not been announced.

Kobra Khan — another prominent Snake Men figure, absent from the cast.

Clamp Champ — a longtime heroic warrior from the comics and toy line, not revealed for the film.
