Set to flex his menacing vocal skills on the animation scene once again, Mark Hamill has joined the cast of Netflix’s Masters of the Universe: Revelation as Skeletor.

This series sits somewhere between a continuation of the original and a complete reboot, as the voice cast has been almost entirely revamped while unresolved storylines featuring well-known characters will be the main focus.

Via Deadline, we also know which major stars will cross paths with Hamill in the audio recording booth.

Game of Thrones favourites Lena Headey and Liam Cunningham are onboard as Evil-Lyn and Man-At-Arms, Supergirl‘s Chris Wood will portray He-Man/Prince Adam, Buffy the Vampire Slayer icon Sarah Michelle Gellar is Teela and Arrowverse‘s Kevin Conroy will give life to Mer-Man.

The world of voice acting is proving fertile ground for Headey and Cunningham, as the former lent her talents to last year’s The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance and the latter recently portrayed a charismatic dragon in season four of Rick and Morty.
