The Darkness releases theme song of “Masters of the Universe” movie

The influences of the cult classic Flash Gordon on the new Masters of the Universe movie are not only visible in the imagery but also in the soundtrack, since Queen created the music for the 1980 film. In this new He-Man movie, Brian May played the guitar solo on a song called Eternia, which strongly recalls what the British band did for the earlier film in the 1980s. Now, The Darkness, a group heavily influenced by Queen, has released the theme song for the film.

“When He-Man asked if we could provide some music for his forthcoming biopic Masters of the Universe, we dusted off our trusty loin cloths, assembled in the courtyard of Castle Darkness and bellowed in unison WE HAVE THE POWER,” the band said.

The legendary Queen guitarist Brian May contributed to the soundtrack of the upcoming He-Man movie “Masters of the Universe” that will be released next June. He played a beautiful guitar solo on Danie Pemberton’s composition “Eternia”, which will be part of the film. “AH !!! Here it is !! I only just discovered this is OUT !!! We Have The Power !!! HE-MAN rocks !! Cheers folks,” he said on his social media.

The film stars Nicholas Galitzine as He-Man, Jared Leto as the evil sorcerer Skeletor, and Idris Elba as Man-at-Arms.
