As a seasoned movie critic with a penchant for discerning the potential stardom of rising talents, I find myself thoroughly impressed by Camila Mendes’ journey thus far. Having broken out onto the scene as Veronica Lodge on Riverdale and steadily climbing the ladder of success ever since, she has proven herself to be a versatile actress capable of tackling a wide range of roles.
Actress Camila Mendes, known for her role in Riverdale, has expressed her feelings about being chosen to play Teela in the forthcoming Masters of the Universe film. Directed by Travis Knight, who is recognized for his work on Kubo and the Two Strings and Bumblebee, Masters of the Universe is a fresh take on the famous 1980s toyline with the same name, which produced numerous animated series and a beloved live-action movie in 1987. The news about Mendes being cast as Teela was revealed earlier this week, confirming that she will be joining Nicholas Galitzine portraying He-Man in the movie.
Following the announcement of her role in “Masters of the Universe”, Sarah Mendes expressed her enthusiasm on Instagram by reposting a screenshot from Deadline’s film report. In the post, she acknowledged director Travis Knight and Mattel, the toy company behind Masters of the Universe, for their faith in her abilities. She’s eager to get started and can hardly believe it’s happening, ending with the caption “Let’s go to Eternia!!!” At the time of writing, the post has garnered over 129,000 likes from fans and colleagues like Lili Reinhart and Madelaine Petsch from Riverdale.
Mendes is a Rising Star
Ever since Mendes debuted on Riverdale in 2016 as Veronica Lodge, she’s amassed a string of prestigious roles. Given her busy schedule with The CW series, Mendes has steered clear of big-budget films and instead embraced smaller productions for streaming platforms, earning us the nickname “Queen of Streaming movies.” In 2020 alone, she graced our screens in the Netflix psychological thriller Dangerous Lies, the critically acclaimed Hulu sci-fi romantic comedy Palm Springs, and more recently, the Netflix dark comedy Do Revenge alongside Maya Hawke.
2024 proved to be an exceptional year for Mendes, marked by her leading roles in two successful romantic comedies, Upgraded and Música, which were exclusively released on Prime Video on February 9th and April 4th respectively. Furthermore, she collaborated with Rachel Matthews to establish Honor Role, a production company, serving as an executive producer for both films. By venturing into production, Mendes has gained the opportunity to oversee projects that resonate with her, thereby playing a more significant part in steering her career path.
Under the direction of Mendes, he’s moving into a significant opportunity with “Masters of the Universe.” Amazon MGM Studios are currently working on this film, planning for a cinema debut in 2026. After years of delays and being passed between multiple studios, there’s a lot of anticipation for the film to recreate the essence of the original series. With their substantial online fan bases, Galitzine and Mendes might attract a new wave of fans to this legendary fantasy tale.
Remarkably, Galitzine and Mendes share a similar age with Dolph Lundgren and Chelsea Field, who portrayed He-Man and Teela respectively, when they starred in the original Masters of the Universe.
