Trivia

The focus on Adora/She-Ra and Catra being each others main adversaries is taken from the original Princess of Power toy-line, in which Catra was the main villain. The Evil Horde were created for the Masters of the Universe toy-line, but added to the She-Ra story line in the Filmation series.

In contrast to the original series, Adora / She-Ra is extensively rewritten to make her origin a result of her own initiative and heroism. For instance, rather than have her twin brother come to Adora’s world and free her from a spell making her loyal to the Evil Horde, Adora in this series is simply naively acclimated to that life as the only one she’s ever known. When Adora is finally exposed to the evil of the Horde and its manipulations, she herself fundamentally has to make the profound moral decision to take a stand against it and join the Rebellion as She-Ra. Furthermore, a major character arc for Adora is her struggle to earn the trust of the Rebellion, who are logically suspicious of a former soldier of the Horde who still wears her uniform with a reflexive military bearing.

The theme song is “Warriors” by Aaliyah Rose.

Adora is the only character to appear in every episode.

Three of the show’s five seasons aired in 2019.

AJ Michalka(The voice of Catra) was in a relationship with Patrick Schwarzenegger, the original Masters of the Universe originated partially from the development of a toy line for his father Arnold Schwarzenegger’s film Conan the Barbarian from 1982.

Glimmer’s voice actress Karen Fukuhara and Dolph Lundgren, who played She-Ra’s twin brother He-Man in 1987’s live-action Masters of the Universe feature film, are both in the DC Extended Universe as Katana and King Nereus.
