Check off another retro comeback because Netflix just announced it’s doing a She-Ra reboot. Princess Adora and her powerful gal pals will be returning to the screen later this year under the DreamWorks and Netflix title, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.
The classic show that debuted in 1985 is getting a complete makeover, thanks to modern animation. There’s no word yet if Prince Adam (a.k.a He-Man) will be joining twin sis on the new adventures.

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is coming packed with notable voices. You can expect to hear the likes of Sandra Oh (Grey’s Anatomy), A.J. Michalka (The Goldbergs), and Lorraine Toussaint (Orange is the New Black), just to name a few.
Like the original series, She-Ra and her lady friends are expected to bring vivid imagery of powerful women and strong friendships as they defend the Crystal Castle. One of the first female heroes in cartoon form, She-Ra has the opportunity to inspire an entirely new generation of young girls. Say it with me now: “We are She-Ra!”

Netflix hasn’t yet announced the official release date for She-Ra, but we do know it will be sometime in 2018. The last lingering question we have is: will we get to see a new and improved Skeletor?
